One of the more challenging tasks in augmented reality is to develop a tracking system for the industrial scenario. It is due the fact that this environment has characteristics that defy most of the techniques available, such as texture less objects that in some case are too large and in others are very small. This work proposes the combination of established techniques for 3D reconstruction and tracking, as well as a calibration routine, that is suitable for this type of scenario. This complete tracking system was evaluated in the ISMAR Tracking Competition, a contest that simulates industrial scenarios and is promoted to test state of the art trackers. The system presented good results in the competition and a discussion regarding its performance is lodged, aiming to introduce an analysis that could help others during the development of their own tracking system for industrial scenario.
