AUGMENTED REALITY APPLICATIONS USING VISUAL TRACKING

Chutisant Kerdvibulvech

Abstract


In this 21st century, augmented reality has recently become a quickly developing field of computer science and engineering in which a virtual world is overlaid on top of the real world. This paper provides an up-to-date review of major visual tracking research. We surveyed recent augmented reality applications using visual tracking. A literature review of the most recent visual tracking techniques is presented. We divide methods of tracking into two main categories. The first group is color-based tracking. The second group is feature-based tracking. Description and limitations of each technique are given. Ultimately, we give a summary of the visual tracking.
