Augmented Reality

Augmented Reality (AR) involves the real time registration of computer generated imagery to augment the information available within a real world scene.
Projects
-
3D feature extraction and matching
Feature extraction and matching is a traditional method for shape matching and analysis.
-
Advanced Interfaces for Surgical Interventions
The development and use of medical virtual environments is one of the major research themes within RIVIC.
-
Advanced Medical Imaging and Visualization Unit
The unit work with projects where imaging and visualization technologies can provide added value to medical applications.
-
Efficient 3D shape matching and retrieval
This project attempts to develop efficient techniques for the representation and matching of 3D shapes.
-
Image manifolds as a way of representing the appearance of objects
Images of objects (such as a rotating teapot, views from a camera mounted on a robot, an actor illuminated from different positions on a hemisphere, etc.)
-
Noise removal and image enhancement
The captured either 2D or 3D data are usually unavoidably corrupted by imaging noise.
-
Saliency detection for 3D surface reconstruction, segmentation and simplification
While the laser scanning systems usually have limited field of view, the captured data from a single viewpoint can only cover a part of the area of interest.
