Title
Recognizing AR markers using optical illusion markers and a low-cost camera
Abstract
In recent years, small portable devices such as smartphones and tablets, have greatly improved and therefore gained widespread acceptance and use. Many previous studies have focused on localization of such devices to provide services using specific user locations. In particular, the Global Positioning System and local Wi-Fi positioning systems are often used for localization. Although these methods can estimate user positions without user action, they use radio waves that may cause radio frequency interference (RFI). In contrast, navigation services have been developed such that users confirm their positions by reading augmented reality (AR) markers; however, in order to recognize AR markers with high accuracy, users must carefully direct their cameras in front of these markers, which therefore poses a problem in terms of convenience. Given this limitation, we propose a means of automatically recognizing AR markers merely by wearing devices such as head-mounted cameras; to do so. We propose a new AR marker using an optical illusion. In our study, we define the shape and recognition region of this marker. In particular, we prepare a commonly used existing square marker and our own markers using the optical illusion effects to verify the recognition distance of each marker.
