Marker Based Augmented Reality
A simple augmented reality system consists of a camera, a computational unit and a display. The camera captures an image, and then the system augments virtual objects on top of the image and displays the result. The system captures an image of the environment, detects the marker and deduces the location and orientation of the camera, and then augments a virtual object on top of the image and displays it on the screen. Diagram below shows flowchart for a simple augmented reality system. The capturing module captures the image from the camera. The tracking module calculates the correct location and orientation for virtual overlay. The rendering module combines the original image and the virtual components using the calculated pose and then renders the augmented image on the display.
