Réalité augmentéeLa réalité augmentée est la superposition de la réalité et d'éléments (sons, images 2D, 3D, vidéos) calculés par un système informatique en temps réel. Elle désigne souvent les différentes méthodes qui permettent d'incruster de façon réaliste des objets virtuels dans une séquence d'images. Elle s'applique aussi bien à la perception visuelle (superposition d'images virtuelles aux images réelles) qu'aux perceptions proprioceptives comme les perceptions tactiles ou auditives.
Pose trackingIn virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), a pose tracking system detects the precise pose of head-mounted displays, controllers, other objects or body parts within Euclidean space. Pose tracking is often referred to as 6DOF tracking, for the six degrees of freedom in which the pose is often tracked. Pose tracking is sometimes referred to as positional tracking, but the two are separate. Pose tracking is different from positional tracking because pose tracking includes orientation whereas and positional tracking does not.
Réalité mixtevignette|Un exemple de réalité mixte, montrant des personnages virtuels mélangés dans un flux en direct du monde réel. La réalité mixte (RM ; en anglais : mixed reality, MR) est la fusion de mondes réels et virtuels pour produire de nouveaux environnements et visualisations, où les objets physiques et numériques coexistent et interagissent en temps réel. La réalité mixte ne se déroule pas exclusivement dans le monde physique ou virtuel, mais est un hybride de réalité et de réalité virtuelle, englobant à la fois la réalité augmentée et la virtualité augmentée par le biais de la technologie immersive.
Réalité étendueLa réalité étendue est la mise en œuvre de technologies de réalité augmentée (AR), de réalité virtuelle (VR) et de réalité mixte (MR) en un seul terme générique. Parfois, on utilise l'acronyme (pour eXtended Reality en anglais) pour désigner l'ensemble de ces technologies. L'objectif de la technologie est de fusionner ou de refléter le monde physique avec un qui peut interagir avec lui. La réalité virtuelle et la réalité augmentée connaissent une croissance rapide et sont actuellement utilisées dans de nombreux domaines différents, tels que le divertissement, le marketing, l'immobilier, la formation et le travail à distance.
Computer-mediated realityComputer-mediated reality refers to the ability to add to, subtract information from, or otherwise manipulate one's perception of reality through the use of a wearable computer or hand-held device such as a smartphone. Mediated reality is a proper superset of mixed reality, augmented reality, and virtual reality, as it also includes, for example, diminished reality. Typically, it is the user's visual perception of the environment that is mediated.
Feature (computer vision)In computer vision and , a feature is a piece of information about the content of an image; typically about whether a certain region of the image has certain properties. Features may be specific structures in the image such as points, edges or objects. Features may also be the result of a general neighborhood operation or feature detection applied to the image. Other examples of features are related to motion in image sequences, or to shapes defined in terms of curves or boundaries between different image regions.
Corner detectionCorner detection is an approach used within computer vision systems to extract certain kinds of features and infer the contents of an image. Corner detection is frequently used in motion detection, , video tracking, image mosaicing, panorama stitching, 3D reconstruction and object recognition. Corner detection overlaps with the topic of interest point detection. A corner can be defined as the intersection of two edges. A corner can also be defined as a point for which there are two dominant and different edge directions in a local neighbourhood of the point.
Blob detectionIn computer vision, blob detection methods are aimed at detecting regions in a that differ in properties, such as brightness or color, compared to surrounding regions. Informally, a blob is a region of an image in which some properties are constant or approximately constant; all the points in a blob can be considered in some sense to be similar to each other. The most common method for blob detection is convolution.
TrackingVideo tracking is the process of locating a moving object (or multiple objects) over time using a camera. It has a variety of uses, some of which are: human-computer interaction, security and surveillance, video communication and compression, augmented reality, traffic control, medical imaging and video editing. Video tracking can be a time-consuming process due to the amount of data that is contained in video. Adding further to the complexity is the possible need to use object recognition techniques for tracking, a challenging problem in its own right.
Harris affine region detectorIn the fields of computer vision and , the Harris affine region detector belongs to the category of feature detection. Feature detection is a preprocessing step of several algorithms that rely on identifying characteristic points or interest points so to make correspondences between images, recognize textures, categorize objects or build panoramas. The Harris affine detector can identify similar regions between images that are related through affine transformations and have different illuminations.
