Virtual transparency: Introducing parallax view into video see-through AR

Alex S. Hill, Jacob Schiefer, Jeff Wilson, Brian Davidson, Maribeth Gandy, Blair MacIntyre · 2011

In this poster, we present the idea of “virtual transparency” for video see-through AR. In fully synthetic 3D graphics, head-tracked motion parallax has been shown to be a powerful depth cue for understanding the structure of the virtual world. To leverage head-tracked motion parallax in video see-through AR, the view of the virtual and physical world must change together in response to head motion. We present a system for accomplishing this, and discuss the benefits and limitations of our approach.
