Augmented Reality Research

Here is Patrick wearing our AR goggles/camera.

Research Topics:

• Bringing Open Hypermedia into AR See Patrick's pages.
• Video demos - including (large file) full demo

• Auto-camera calibration and AR see my PhD Student Junaidi's pages.

We are working mainly with the ARToolkit which provides a nice way to get AR working, using marker cards and even just a Webcam.

What is Augmented Reality?

AR is different to Virtual Reality (VR) in that the real world is still visible and digital objects are added in. VR is usually a completely synthetic world which tries to replicate real scenes.
