Reality● Computer Vision & AR● Pattern Recognition● Augmented Reality and Mobile● GPS based Augmentation● Sound based Augmentation● Application● hoppAR● Demo (Kodemint Projects and Business Cards)
Introduction
● Kodemint Technologies - IT company based in Calicut● Product Development Wing - Augmented Reality ● Services wing - Mobile Applications
We were featured in Mathrubhoomi
What is Augmented Reality?
● Augment - means “Supplement”
● AR - “hyperlink” a real time object ● AR - can make any surface into a touch screen● Give any kind of information about a real time object.
Augmented Reality Vs Virtual Reality
● VR - simulates an experience by mimicking real world.
Eg:● Driving Simulator● Flight Simulator● Oculus VR - Developed
Oculus Rift, a VR based headset for game development
Driving Simulation - A VR Application
Flight Simulation - A VR Application
Augmented Reality Vs Virtual Reality (conti.)
● AR - Digital information is embedded into real world objects.
Eg:● hoppAR
AR & Computer Vision
● Augmented Reality works on the principle of Computer Vision.
● CV is a field that acquires, processes, analyses & understands images to produce numeric/symbolic information
● Computer Scientists - dream - duplicate a human eye. ● Camera - Input device
Computer Vision Applications
Pattern Recognitions - bar code reading and QR (Quick Response) code reading - most popular applications of CV.
Barcode - machine readable representation of data associated with an object to which it is attached to.
QR Code - matrix bar code
AR & Mobile
● Smart phones● Camera - input device
● QR code readers - available on app stores● Times of India - Alive
● Hotel California - Kodemint
Types of Augmentation
● GPS based Augmentation - Augmenting location- City Lens
● Sound based Augmentation - Augmenting sound
AR - Stand Alone Applications
● Eg: Kodemint has come up with a stand alone kiosk● Idea Cellular used it for brand promotions
● Sound based Augmentation - Augmenting sound● Eg: You can capture the surrounding sound to do
something associated with it.
Applications
Applications
● Applications are huge. Eg: Kodemint has come up with a stand alone kiosk
● Idea Cellular used it for brand promotions
● Sound based Augmentation - Augmenting sound● Eg: You can capture the surrounding sound to do
something associated with it.

Applications of AR
Industry Targetted How it helps the end customer
Jewellery End user gets to see the details of the jewellery without actually seeing it.
Real Estate/Builder End user gets to see the details of the project without actually going to the site.
Medical End user (a doc) can use this device to do scanning
Toys End user gets to see the details of the toys & how it will look like after assembling without opening the box.
Textiles (Espcially sari showrooms)
The buyer can see how a dress would like if it is draped
Brand Promotions
