Augmented Reality (AR) stands for superimposing virtual objects in the user’s view of the real world, providing novel visualisation technology for a wide range of application areas. The work by VTT’s Augmented Reality team dates back to the year 2000, when we started developing virtual advertisements for live TV broadcast and, a little later, games and entertainment applications. Currently, our research focus is on architecture/construction and interior design applications, as well as industrial applications at production sites. While we keep track on the very latest AR research in the world, we also do important basic research ourselves, e.g. both on marker detection and markerless tracking. Furthermore, we are especially proud of being able to adopt many complex video processing and AR ideas for low-level mobile platforms, e.g. camera phones, in which the processing power and transmission bandwidths are scarce resources.
