A navigator draws a route on a chart to navigate a ship from an origin port to a destination port. Then, the navigator sails the ship based on the route. In other word, the navigator misidentifies the route there is a possibility of running aground. In order to prevent navigator's misidentifies, this study proposed a sea route display system which displays the sea route on the surface of the sea by...
Reliably localizing and tracking displays moving relative to content in the physical world is one of the primary technical challenges facing all augmented reality systems. While significant progress has been made in recent years, all approaches remain limited to functioning only in certain environments and situations. Attempts to improve solution generality via additional sensors (e.g., depth sensors,...
We present in this paper a novel warehouse inventory scheme. The main purpose of this work is to make the inventory process completely autonomous. To this end, an Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) and an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) work cooperatively. The UGV is used as the carrying platform, and considered as a ground reference for the indoor flight of the UAV. While the UAV is used as the mobile scanner...
With the ongoing introduction of wide-FOV VR head-worn displays into the consumer market, the application of VR 3D UIs to professional work environments is attracting increasing attention. One of the most conspicuous concepts is immersive 3D modeling and content creation. In spite of the long research history, there have been very few analyses of the effect of 3D UIs on productivity in 3D design....
A newly developed augmented reality system is proposed which emits luminescent AR markers using a projector instead of tangible markers. This paper clarifies several features such as marker replacement operation, traveling marker operation and postural deception operation to contribute to an active execution for mobile robot navigation.
We present in this paper a backstepping controller for vision based target tracking with an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. A down facing camera is used with a pose estimation algorithm to extract the position of the target (an Unmanned Ground Vehicle). The output is then fed into the developed controller to generate the necessary movements (pitch and roll) of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle in order to keep...
In this paper, we present an augmented in-vehicle navigation system for Head-Up Display (HUD). The proposed system superimposes turning directions and lane recommendations that correctly match the real world according to the variations in the driver's view. Therefore, the driver can keep his attention to specific situations and intuitively drive in the right direction. The proposed system extracts...
Robots will play a vital role in our future personal spaces and we need to provide ways for robots and humans to interact with each other in a way that is natural, intuitive, descriptive and unambiguous. In this paper we introduce a framework that enables a human and robot to naturally interact and communicate with each other using the idea of diagrams. The diagrams are formed by a connected set of...
Due to the limited of precision, navigation technology in the local area cannot accurately locate each building and obtain the functions related to the building. This paper investigates augmented reality and navigation technologies and realizes the campus internal navigation on a mobile phone. In the campus, the exact position and detail data of every school can be obtained by using the augmented...
This paper proposes a new navigation system using augmented reality (AR) technology for distribution work in central offices. This system helps operators to work accurately and effectively when they perform installation or removal work at connector panels accommodating a large number of optical fiber cords, and it also enables a database to be accurately constructed. We employ AR technology, which...
A visual-based auxiliary navigation method using augmented reality is an immersive navigation interface with virtual navigation and decision-making information superimposed on the video of real environment. It can provide the operator with more information to behave proactively in order to forestall future problems, with less stress or effort, and to increase the successful rate of UAV missions. The...
An investigation of the technology and human factors that drive augmented reality research describes recent developments in handheld AR, concentrating on localization, tracking, interaction, and visualization, and offers several examples illustrating the vast potential and important applications of AR. A related video can be seen here: http://youtu.be/ol371rIyUFY. It shows several real-world examples...
We investigate user experiences when using augmented reality (AR) as a new aid to navigation. We integrate AR with other more common interfaces into a handheld navigation system, and we conduct an exploratory study to see where and how people exploit AR. Based on previous work on augmented photographs, we hypothesize that AR is used more to support wayfinding at static locations when users approach...

Augmented reality UAV multi-source information is obtained by overlaying a variety of other sensors and the database data in the airborne video of CCD sensor. More substantial and credible information display can then be obtained. Our research includes the establishment of binocular stereo camera, improved feature matching algorithm with high matching speed and robustness, pose measurement methods...
Since audition is omnidirectional, it is especially receptive to orientation modulation. Position can be defined as the combination of location and orientation information. Location-based or location-aware services do not generally require orientation information, but position-based services are explicitly parameterized by angular bearing as well as place. “Whereware” suggests using hyperlocal georeferences...
We propose an augmented reality application system for playing Scopa. The idea of this application is that visual augmentation by means of the AR method will help a Scopa beginner play games, learn rules from his/her game experiences under the support of the system, and thus become an experienced player who can play without any support. The system captures cards in the player's view via a camera,...
Augmented Reality (AR) is the technology of adding virtual objects to the real scenes through enabling the addition of missing information at real life. As the lack of resources is a problem that can be solved through AR, this paper represents and explains the usage of AR technology in what can be named Augmented Reality Student Card (ARSC) for serving the education field. ARSC uses single static...
In this paper we describe the achievement of a Context Aware platform capable of collecting contextual user data and also information about users' surrounding context such as relevant Point of Interests. We also analyze the complexity of exploiting a large amount of collected data through a proper interactive system without affecting applications' usability and avoiding information overload. We finally...
Many mobile robots have been deployed in various museums to interact with people naturally. The key requirements of a museum tour guide robot are how well it interacts with people and how well it localizes itself. Once those are accomplished, the robot can successfully educate and entertain people. In this paper, we propose a museum tour guide robot which uses augmented reality (AR) technologies to...
