Introduction

This seminar introduces common tools and principles in computer vision for applications in the field of augmented reality. The Seminar will propose a list of recent scientific articles related to the main current research topics in computer vision for augmented reality together with some interesting papers from other communities.

Registration

• It should be done through the TUM Matching Platform (please pay attention to the Deadlines).

Requirements

In this Master Seminar (formerly Hauptseminar), each student is asked to select one paper from a list. In order to successfully complete the seminar, participants have to fulfill these requirements:
