Nestor enables real-time recognition and pose estimation of planar shapes for augmented reality (AR) applications. This system allows users to teach it new shapes, enabling dynamic AR tracking targets with interactive frame rates.

Area of Science:

  • Computer Vision
  • Augmented Reality
  • Robotics

Background:

  • Augmented Reality (AR) systems require robust tracking targets.
  • Real-time recognition and pose estimation of planar shapes are crucial for effective AR.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a real-time system for planar shape recognition and camera pose estimation.
  • To enable the use of meaningful shapes as AR tracking targets.
  • To allow dynamic learning of new shapes for AR applications.

Main Methods:

  • Shape recognition via contour analysis and projective-invariant signatures from concavities.
  • Pose estimation and tracking using extracted concavity features.
  • Pose refinement through reprojection error minimization and active contour matching.
