Adaptive User Perspective Rendering for Handheld Augmented Reality
Handheld Augmented Reality commonly implements some variant of magic lens
rendering, which turns only a fraction of the user's real environment into AR
while the rest of the environment remains unaffected. Since handheld AR devices
are commonly equipped with video see-through capabilities, AR magic lens
applications often suffer from spatial distortions, because the AR environment
is presented from the perspective of the camera of the mobile device. Recent
approaches counteract this distortion based on estimations of the user's head
position, rendering the scene from the user's perspective. To this end,
approaches usually apply face-tracking algorithms on the front camera of the
mobile device. However, this demands high computational resources and therefore
commonly affects the performance of the application beyond the already high
computational load of AR applications. In this paper, we present a method to
reduce the computational demands for user perspective rendering by applying
lightweight optical flow tracking and an estimation of the user's motion before
head tracking is started. We demonstrate the suitability of our approach for
computationally limited mobile devices and we compare it to device perspective
rendering, to head tracked user perspective rendering, as well as to fixed
point of view user perspective rendering
An adaptive control system to deliver Interactive Virtual Environment content to handheld devices
Wireless communication advances have enabled emerging video streaming applications to mobile handheld devices. For example, it is possible to display and interact with complex 3D virtual environments on mobile devices that don't have enough computational and storage capabilities (e.g. smart phones, PDAs) through remote rendering techniques, where a server renders 3D data and streams the corresponding image flow to the client. However, due to fluctuations in bandwidth characteristics and limited mobile device CPU capabilities, it is extremely challenging to design effective systems for streaming interactive multimedia over wireless networks. This paper presents a novel approach based on a controller that can automatically adjust streaming parameters basing on feedback measures from the client device. Experimental results prove the effectiveness of the proposed solution in coping with bandwidth changes, thus providing high Quality of Service (QoS) in remote visualization
Constructive 3D Visualization techniques on Mobile platform- Empirical Analysis
As per the concept of 3D visualization on mobile devices it is clear that it belongs to two approaches i.e. local and remote approach. According to the technological advances in mobile devices it is possible to handle some complex data locally and visualized it. But still it is a challenging task to manage real entities on mobile devices locally. Remote visualization plays a vital role for 3D visualization on mobile platform in which data comes from server. Remote approach for 3D visualization on mobile platform consist of various techniques, critical analysis of such techniques is focus into this paper. Also the main focus is on network aspects
