Technology using related hardware & software.

7. Architect’s Role

8. Designer
The architect hired by a client is responsible for creating a design concept that meets
the requirements of that client and provides a facility suitable to the required use.

9. Environmental
Architect is
required to
remain abreast
of current
regulations
related with
Environment &
should make
client aware.

10. Constructor
Depending on the
client's needs and the
jurisdiction's
requirements, the
spectrum of the
architect's services
during construction
stages may be
extensive or less
involved.

18. Upcoming Trends (Advance
Rendering Technologies)

19. Advance Rendering Technologies, topics
to be discussed:
 Augmented Reality (AR)
 Why AR?
 How AR works?
 Categories of AR
 Virtual Reality (VR)
 Augmented Reality vs Virtual Reality
 Augmented Virtuality
 Mixed Reality (MR)
 Display Devices used in Advanced Rendering Technologies
 Applications of Advance Rendering Technologies

20. Augmented Reality

21. What is Augmented Reality (AR)?
 Definition: Augmented Reality is a combination of
real scene viewed and a virtual scene generated
by a computer that augments the scene with
additional information.
 An AR adds virtual computer generated objects,
audio & other sense enhancements to a real world
environment.

22. Real Scene
Scene
Generated by
a Computer

23. Why AR?
AR enhances the user experience which
creates positive impact towards brand and
company.
AR reduces the infrastructure cost, as it
runs on users hardware.

24. How AR works
 Pick a real world scene
 Add virtual object (Prepared by Bhaumik
sir)
 Replace some portion of real world scene
by virtual object (Augmentation).
 Run the clubbed scene in real time.

25. Categories of AR
AR is categorised mainly in two
categories
Target / Marker based Augmented
Reality (Discussed in details)
Location based Augmented Reality

26. Target or Marker based Augmented
Reality
In Target / Marker based
augmented reality the
main features of Target
are predefined in the
application. When
applications locates the
target in the image
through camera, target’s
position & orientation
gets calculated and
Virtual Object is
augmented as per that
information.

27. Location Based Augmented Reality
In Location based
Augmented Reality,
device’s latitude &
longitude is find out
through GPS or other
Geo based protocols;
device’s orientation
is calculated through
gyroscope & Virtual
Object augmented
accordingly.

28. Virtual Reality
Virtual Reality means
immersing into different
environment at-least
visually. When we
immerse into different
environment with all
senses then it is called
as complete immersion.
Through Motion trackers
& interactive devices
we can interact with
Virtual World.

29. Augmented Reality (AR) vs Virtual
Reality (VR)
Augmented Reality
 System augments the real
world scene.
 User maintains a sense of
presence in real world.
 Needs a mechanism to
combine virtual & real
world.
Virtual Reality
 Totally immersive
environment.
 Visual and other senses
are under control of
system.
 Real world doesn’t exist in
virtual reality.

31. Mixed Reality (MR) is an advance form of
an AR
Virtual Object

32. All these technologies like AR,
VR, MR, etc. are called
Advanced Rendering
Technologies and to do so they
need display devices.

43. Target or Marker based Augmented
Reality

44. Target or Marker based Augmented
Reality
What is a Target or a Marker?
Types of Target or Marker?
Plain Image vs Coded Image
Virtual Object & types of Virtual
Object

45. What is Target or Marker?
 Target is an object, which is recognisable by our
AR application. To make any object recognisable
by our application, its distinctive features have to
be known to our application. Object can be made
recognisable by doing Image Processing and
storing that processed result for future
comparisons.

46. Types of Target / Marker
Single Image
Cuboid
Cylinder or Cone
3D Object

53. Types of Single Images
Plain Image
Coded Image
Plain image is discussed in previous
examples. Now let us see what is
coded Image?

54. Are they same???

55. Now try this one…
If you see them through application they are JVAR (Jumbo Virtual & Augmented Reality) , Ping & Star
respectively.

56. Virtual Object & types of Virtual Objects
Virtual Object is a Computer Generated
Graphic Augmented on Target Image,
whose Position & Orientation linked with
Position & Orientation of Target Image.
The Virtual Object can be an Image,3D
Graphical Object, AV (Audio or Video),
Animation, Alpha-Numeric Character or a
combination of all.

application on
Augmented Reality
which augments their
watches on user’s
hand. User can
visualise the watch
on his hand without
wearing it.
