Abstract
Augmented Reality (AR) is an emerging technology that synthesizes the
real vision with virtual reality (VR) objects by aligning the objects
onto the real world at high precision. AR literature has been growing
radically in past few years. As for hardware, for example, cellular
phones and PDA also could run state of the art AR system thanks to the
recent development. AR becomes a promising tool in various applications
including entertainment, surgery support, and other many business works,
and it is thought that is about to break to our daily scenes.
In this talk, we look through the recent progress of AR and pick up some
outstanding papers, and then we introduce our contribution on free
viewpoint video generation and visual support for drivers and
pedestrians.
