Comp4010 Lecture5 Interaction and Prototyping
- 1. INTERACTION AND PROTOTYPING COMP 4010 Lecture Five Mark Billinghurst August 24th 2021 mark.billinghurst@unisa.edu.au
- 2. REVIEW
- 4. Common AR Optical Tracking Types • Marker Tracking • Tracking known artificial markers/images • e.g. ARToolKit square markers • Markerless Tracking • Tracking from known features in real world • e.g. Vuforia image tracking • Unprepared Tracking • Tracking in unknown environment • e.g. SLAM tracking
- 5. Marker Tracking • Available for more than 20 years • Several open-source solutions exist • ARToolKit, ARTag, ATK+, etc • Fairly simple to implement • Standard computer vision methods • A rectangle provides 4 corner points • Enough for pose estimation!
- 6. Marker Based Tracking: ARToolKit https://github.com/artoolkit
- 7. Natural Feature Tracking • Use Natural Cues of Real Elements • Edges • Surface Texture • Interest Points • Model or Model-Free • No visual pollution Contours Features Points Surfaces
- 9. Detection and Tracking Detection Incremental tracking Tracking target detected Tracking target lost Tracking target not detected Incremental tracking ok Start + Recognize target type + Detect target + Initialize camera pose + Fast + Robust to blur, lighting changes + Robust to tilt • Tracking and detection are complementary approaches. • After successful detection, the target is tracked incrementally. • If the target is lost, the detection is activated again
- 10. NFT – Real-time tracking • Search for keypoints in the video image • Create the descriptors • Match the descriptors from the live video against those in the database • Remove the keypoints that are outliers • Use the remaining keypoints to calculate the pose of the camera Keypoint detection Descriptor creation and matching Outlier Removal Pose estimation and refinement Camera Image Pose Recognition
- 11. Example Target Image Feature Detection AR Overlay
- 12. Tracking from an Unknown Environment • What to do when you don’t know any features? • Very important problem in mobile robotics - Where am I? • SLAM • Simultaneously Localize And Map the environment • Goal: to recover both camera pose and map structure while initially knowing neither. • Mapping: • Building a map of the environment which the robot is in • Localisation: • Navigating this environment using the map while keeping track of the robot’s relative position and orientation
- 13. Parallel Tracking and Mapping Tracking Mapping New keyframes Map updates + Estimate camera pose + For every frame + Extend map + Improve map + Slow updates rate Parallel tracking and mapping uses two concurrent threads, one for tracking and one for mapping, which run at different speeds
- 14. How SLAMWorks • Three main steps 1. Tracking a set of points through successive camera frames 2. Using these tracks to triangulate their 3D position 3. Simultaneously use the estimated point locations to calculate the camera pose which could have observed them • By observing a sufficient number of points can solve for both structure and motion (camera path and scene structure).
- 15. Hybrid Tracking Interfaces • Combine multiple tracking technologies together • Active-Passive: Magnetic, Vision • Active-Inertial: Vison, inertial • Passoive-Inertial: Compass, inertial
- 16. Combining Sensors andVision • Sensors • Produces noisy output (= jittering augmentations) • Are not sufficiently accurate (= wrongly placed augmentations) • Gives us first information on where we are in the world, and what we are looking at • Vision • Is more accurate (= stable and correct augmentations) • Requires choosing the correct keypoint database to track from • Requires registering our local coordinate frame (online- generated model) to the global one (world)
- 17. Example: Outdoor Hybrid Tracking • Combines • computer vision • inertial gyroscope sensors • Both correct for each other • Inertial gyro • provides frame to frame prediction of camera orientation, fast sensing • drifts over time • Computer vision • Natural feature tracking, corrects for gyro drift • Slower, less accurate
- 18. ARKit – Visual Inertial Odometry • Uses both computer vision + inertial sensing • Tracking position twice • Computer Vision – feature tracking, 2D plane tracking • Inertial sensing – using the phone IMU • Output combined via Kalman filter • Determine which output is most accurate • Pass pose to ARKit SDK • Each system compliments the other • Computer vision – needs visual features • IMU - drifts over time, doesn’t need features
- 19. ARKit –Visual Inertial Odometry • Slow camera • Fast IMU • If camera drops out IMU takes over • Camera corrects IMU errors
- 20. AR INTERACTION
- 21. Different Types of AR Interaction 1. Browsing Interfaces • simple (conceptually!), unobtrusive 2. 3D AR Interfaces • expressive, creative, require attention 3. Tangible Interfaces • embedded into conventional environments 4. Tangible AR • combines TUI input + AR display 5. Natural AR Interfaces • interact with gesture, speech and gaze
- 22. 1. AR Interfaces as Data Browsers • 2D/3D virtual objects are registered in 3D • “VR in Real World” • Interaction • 2D/3D virtual viewpoint control • Applications • Visualization, training
- 23. Example: Google Maps AR Mode • AR Navigation Aid • GPS + compass, 2D/3D object placement
- 24. Advantages and Disadvantages • Important class of AR interfaces • Wearable computers • AR simulation, training • Limited interactivity • Modification of virtual content is difficult Rekimoto, et al. 1997

- 26. Advantages and Disadvantages • Important class of AR interfaces • Entertainment, design, training • Advantages • User can interact with 3D virtual object everywhere in space • Natural, familiar interaction • Disadvantages • Usually no tactile feedback • User has to use different devices for virtual and physical objects Oshima, et al. 2000
