Erweiterte Realität II

Prof. Gudrun Klinker, Ph.D.

Content

Augmented Reality (AR) allows users to view computer information that is graphically embedded within the real three-dimensional world. Using a semi-transparent head-mounted display (HMD) attached to a wearable computer, a user can inspect and manipulat e objects while viewing information about these objects in the HMD. This information is typically displayed as virtual objects in the real world, thus augmenting the perception of the user. The wearable computer enables users to carry their work as they normally do, without imposing constraints on their mobility or their hand. AR applications span from medical minimally invasive surgery to manufacturing, from machine inspection and repair to games and tourist guides.

This class presents technical and mathematical foundations of Augmented Reality - as used in current international research and applications. In particular, the class will teach

• Geometric concepts (projective transformations, epipolar geometry) that are required for optically registering and tracking objects,
• Concepts for modeling user contexts in ubiquitous environments

The class will be conducted in English
