Augmented Reality 101

The development of areas such as computer vision, image processing, and computer graphics, allow the introduction of technologies such as Augmented Reality.

Azuma defines Augmented Reality as "a technology that adds computer-generated virtual content to real-world views through devices".

Introduction

The purpose of these map is to give you an idea about Augmented Reality and to guide you through the main features that surround this technology.

Augmented Reality Application

In this repository, I want to present a basic implementation that projects on the screen a 3D model aligned (orientation and translation) to a predefined flat surface.

However, currently the industry is investing in different frameworks as ARCore, ARKit, and Vuforia, among others, which provide the community more accessible technologies with more realistic results and experiences.

The repository has two parts:

  1. Image is the implementation, step by step, with some basic definitions, to add a 3D model to a flat image.
  2. Video is the implementation to have the experience in real-time through a camera.

Instalation

git clone [email protected]:mafda/augmented_reality_101.git

Environment

The tools we will use are Python 3 and OpenCV 4.2.

  1. Create virtual environment:
python -m venv /path/to/new/virtual/environment
  1. Activate environment:
source /path/to/new/virtual/environment/bin/activate
  1. Install requirements.txt file:
pip install -r requirements.txt
  1. For Image
python -m jupyter notebook
  1. For Video
python ar_python3_opencv4.py

Model 3D

Results

augmented reality python3 opencv2
