Augmented Reality

We have a significant experience in the AR field especially through the European project ARIS (2001–2004) which aimed at developing effective and realistic AR systems for e-commerce and especially for interior design. Beyond this restrictive application field, this project allowed us to develop nearly real time camera tracking methods for multi-planar environments. Since then, we have amplified our research on multi-planar environments in order to obtain effective and robust AR systems in such environments. We currently investigate both automatic and interactive techniques for scene reconstruction/structure from motion methods in order to be able to consider large and unknown environments. For some time, we are investigating AR for deformable objects in the context of medical applications.
