TY - RPRT A1 - Kurz, Daniel A1 - Häntsch, Ferry A1 - Grosse, Max A1 - Schiewe, Alexander A1 - Bimber, Oliver T1 - Laser Pointer Tracking in Projector-Augmented Architectural Environments N2 - We present a system that applies a custom-built pan-tilt-zoom camera for laser-pointer tracking in arbitrary real environments. Once placed in a building environment, it carries out a fully automatic self-registration, registrations of projectors, and sampling of surface parameters, such as geometry and reflectivity. After these steps, it can be used for tracking a laser spot on the surface as well as an LED marker in 3D space, using inter-playing fisheye context and controllable detail cameras. The captured surface information can be used for masking out areas that are critical to laser-pointer tracking, and for guiding geometric and radiometric image correction techniques that enable a projector-based augmentation on arbitrary surfaces. We describe a distributed software framework that couples laser-pointer tracking for interaction, projector-based AR as well as video see-through AR for visualizations with the domain specific functionality of existing desktop tools for architectural planning, simulation and building surveying.

In our vision, this supports ad-hoc re-illumination, automatic keying, unconstrained presentation of moderation information, camera-tracking, and scene acquisition. In this paper we show how a new adaptive imperceptible pattern projection that considers parameters of human visual perception, linked with real-time difference keying enables an in-shot optical tracking using a novel dynamic multi-resolution marker technique KW - Association for Computing Machinery / Special Interest Group on Graphics KW - CGI KW - Maschinelles Sehen KW - Virtuelle Studios KW - Erweiterte Realität KW - Kamera Tracking KW - Projektion KW - Virtual Studios KW - Augmented Reality KW - Camera Tracking KW - Projection Y1 - 2007 U6 - http://nbn-resolving.de/urn/resolver.pl?urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-8005 ER - TY - RPRT A1 - Grundhöfer, Anselm A1 - Seeger, Manja A1 - Häntsch, Ferry A1 - Bimber, Oliver T1 - Dynamic Adaptation of Projected Imperceptible Codes N2 - In this paper we present a novel adaptive imperceptible pattern projection technique that considers parameters of human visual perception. A coded image that is invisible for human observers is temporally integrated into the projected image, but can be reconstructed by a synchronized camera. The embedded code is dynamically adjusted on the fly to guarantee its non-perceivability and to adapt it to the current camera pose. Linked with real-time flash keying, for instance, this enables in-shot optical tracking using a dynamic multi-resolution marker technique. A sample prototype is realized that demonstrates the application of our method in the context of augmentations in television studios.

This is realized with projector-camera systems by scanning the projection surface on a per-pixel basis. With the captured information, a compensation image is calculated that neutralizes geometric distortions and color blending caused by the underlying surface. As a result, the brightness and the contrast of the input image is reduced compared to a conventional projection onto a white canvas. If the input image is not manipulated in its intensities, the compensation image can contain values that are outside the dynamic range of the projector. They will lead to clipping errors and to visible artifacts on the surface. In this article, we present a novel algorithm that dynamically adjusts the content of the input images before radiometric compensation is carried out. This reduces the perceived visual artifacts while simultaneously preserving a maximum of luminance and contrast. The algorithm is implemented entirely on the GPU and is the first of its kind to run in real-time.
