Pros And Cons

With the availability of 360-degree cameras, 360-degree videos have become popular recently. To attach a virtual tag on a physical object in 360-degree videos for augmented reality applications, automatic object tracking is required so the virtual tag can follow its corresponding physical object in 360-degree videos. Relative to ordinary videos, 360-degree videos in an equirectangular format have special characteristics such as viewpoint change, occlusion, deformation, lighting change, scale change, and camera shakiness. Tracking algorithms designed for ordinary videos may not work well on 360-degree videos. Therefore, we thoroughly evaluate the performance of eight modern trackers in terms of accuracy and speed on 360-degree videos. The pros and cons of these trackers on 360-degree videos are discussed. Possible improvements to adapt these trackers to 360-degree videos are also suggested. Finally, we provide a dataset containing nine 360-degree videos with ground truth of target positions as a benchmark for future research.

Feature Descriptors

This paper presents a comparison of natural feature descriptors for rigid object tracking for augmented reality (AR) applications. AR relies on object tracking in order to identify a physical object and to superimpose virtual object on an object. Natural feature tracking (NFT) is one approach for computer vision-based object tracking. NFT utilizes interest points of a physcial object, represents them as descriptors, and matches the descriptors against reference descriptors in order to identify a phsical object to track. In this research, we investigate four different natural feature descriptors (SIFT, SURF, FREAK, ORB) and their capability to track rigid objects. Rigid objects need robust descriptors since they need to describe the objects in a 3D space. AR applications are also real-time application, thus, fast feature matching is mandatory. FREAK and ORB are binary descriptors, which promise a higher performance in comparison to SIFT and SURF. We deployed a test in which we match feature descriptors to artificial rigid objects. The results indicate that the SIFT descriptor is the most promising solution in our addressed domain, AR-based assembly training.

Intisari  - Provinsi Riau terletak di lokasi yang strategis dan memiliki kekayaan keindahan alam dan budaya  yang  unik,  Riau  menawarkan  banyak  tempat  wisata  baik alam dan  budaya.  Tujuan  dari penelitian ini untuk membuat aplikasi  yang membantu masyarakat  untuk mendapatkan informasi objek wisata unggulan di Provinsi Riau. Salah satu faktor yang menyebabkan kurang berkembangnya sektor pariwisata di Provinsi Riau saat ini adalah karena pengelolaan informasi yang bersifat promosi dan belum mampu memaksimalkan ketersediaan teknologi informasi yang tersedia. Penggunaan teknologi augmented reality adalah teknologi yang menggabungkan benda maya tiga dimensi ke dalam  sebuah  lingkungan  tiga-dimensi  nyata  dan  kemudian  memproyeksikan  benda-benda  maya secara real time. Markerless objek wisata unggulan adalah bono surfing, balap alur, tongkang bahan bakar, pantai Rupat, istana siak dan Candi Muara Takus. pembuatan obyek dan membaca penanda scan dari kamera menggunakan teknik markerbase dan Markerless dengan objek Pelacakan metode 3D dan algoritma SIFT (Skala Fitur invarian Transform). Proses yang terkandung dalam deteksi obyek membaca gambar, mempertajam gambar dengan memanfaatkan High Pass Filter; membaca gambar dari metode SIFT bahwa proses akan menghasilkan deteksi titik. Hasil pengujian untuk melihat efek dari jarak antara smartphone kamera dengan spidol, jarak yang diperoleh sangat ideal untuk menampilkan objek 3D, sampai 40 cm. pengujian aplikasi ARRiauTouris mampu mendeteksi penanda dengan jarak dekat 10 cm dan jarak maksimum 67 cm, dan memperoleh waktu rata-rata untuk objek (mean) antara 0,80 detik menjadi 0,93 detik. Kata kunci: obyek wisata, augmented reality, 3D pelacakan objek, provinsi riau
