Pose estimation algorithm for mobile augmented reality based on inertial sensor fusion

Abstract

<span>Augmented reality (AR) applications have become increasingly ubiquitous as it integrates virtual information such as images, 3D objects, video, and more to the real world, which further enhances the real environment. Many researchers have investigated the augmentation of the 3D object on the digital screen. However, certain loopholes exist in the existing system while estimating the object’s pose, making it inaccurate for mobile augmented reality (MAR) applications. Objects augmented in the current system have much jitter due to frame illumination changes, affecting the accuracy of vision-based pose estimation. This paper proposes to estimate the pose of an object by blending both vision-based techniques and micro electrical mechanical system (MEMS) sensor (gyroscope) to minimize the jitter problem in MAR. The algorithm used for feature detection and description is oriented FAST rotated BRIEF (ORB), whereas to evaluate the homography for pose estimation, <a name="_Hlk100294718"></a>random sample consensus (RANSAC) is used. Furthermore, gyroscope sensor data is incorporated with the vision-based pose estimation. We evaluated the performance of augmenting the 3D object using the techniques, vision-based, and incorporating the sensor data using the video data. After extensive experiments, the validity of the proposed method was superior to the existing vision-based pose estimation algorithms.</span>

Acceptance of augmented reality in video conference based learning during COVID-19 pandemic in higher education

“…It implies that easy-to-use augmented reality tools, influence from social circles, and the available resources to use AR are not significantly affecting behavioral intention. These findings lead to management decisions to prepare the learning environment with the newest technologies such as better AR performance [49], haptic feedback system [50], hybrid tracking [51], and further research to enhance UTAUT2 and correlation with the various learning style. This research was conducted in a limited time and only used the Likert scale as the measurement.…”

Method for measuring voltages in channels of a hemispherical resonator gyroscope with an arbitrary orientation axes

“…Let us denote the own resonator axes X'-Y', and the axes of signal pickup X-Y. Previously, in some works [7]- [11], it was proposed to excite a standing wave in a non-ideal resonator, initially rotated and oriented along its own axes X'-Y', and not along the axis of the excitation or pickup electrodes X-Y, as shown in Figure 6. A minimum of eight excitation electrodes must be used to shift the standing wave excitation.…”

Development and evaluation of a didactic tool with augmented reality for Quechua language learning in preschoolers

“…However, this resource is not yet fully implemented at the basic level of education, it is believed that it can hurt children, despite the existence of studies showing satisfactory results in learning [14]. Numerous researches have been conducted in different fields using augmented reality (AR), and have highlighted the advantages of its implementation [15], highlighting that this technology can perform efficiently in the area of education because it allows users to interact with the real world in a didactic way, helping both teachers and students [16]. Mixing qualities such as the good use of this tool and the dedication of a good teacher give way to a set of virtues capable of transforming the educational experience because information and communication technology (ICT) resources contribute to the didactic processes of learning and collaboration in the educational environment [17].…”
