Recent, there is increasing interest in AR(Augmented Reality). And various AR application programs using the latest Augmented Reality technology have been developed. In particular, researches about hair style simulator have been conducted for a long time. It can experience real-time a variety of hair styles to fit the taste of the customer. And some company has conducted the hair style simulator services. However, the most service products are the 2D hair style simulator did not apply the AR technology. Even though 3D hair style simulator has applied AR technology, a function of the NUI was lack. Therefore, in this paper have developed the 3D hair style simulator based on the core technology of AR like NUI as well as EHCI. 10 people was experienced the 3D hair style simulator. Finally, in this paper verifies the effectiveness of the 3D hair style simulator.

This paper presents how to implement Markerless Augmented Reality and how to create and apply reference data sets. There are three parts related with implementation: setting camera, creation of reference data set, and tracking. To create effective reference data sets, we need a 3D model such as CAD model. It is also required to create reference data sets from various viewpoints. We extract the feature points from the model image and then extract 3D positions corresponding to the feature points using ray tracking. These 2D/3D correspondence point sets constitute a reference data set of the model. Reference data sets are constructed for various viewpoints of the model. Fast tracking can be done using a reference data set the most frequently matched with feature points of the present frame and model data near the reference data set.

In this paper, we propose a deep learning based on-device augmented reality (AR) system in which multiple input images are used to implement the correct occlusion in a real environment. The proposed system is composed of three technical steps; camera pose estimation, depth estimation, and object augmentation. Each step employs various mobile frameworks to optimize the processing on the on-device environment. Firstly, in the camera pose estimation stage, the massive computation involved in feature extraction is parallelized using OpenCL which is the GPU parallelization framework. Next, in depth estimation, monocular and multiple image-based depth image inference is accelerated using the mobile deep learning framework, i.e. TensorFlow Lite. Finally, object augmentation and occlusion handling are performed on the OpenGL ES mobile graphics framework. The proposed augmented reality system is implemented as an application in the Android environment. We evaluate the performance of the proposed system in terms of augmentation accuracy and the processing time in the mobile as well as PC environments.

Recently, a fire suddenly broke out in a crowded theater, and many people were unable to find an escape route, becoming entangled, injured, and suffocating from smoke inhalation, resulting in a large-scale fire accident. Even though most of the people were young, they were unable to evacuate. If they had been elderly, it could have resulted in greater casualties. In particular, since it is difficult to receive accurate location information from GPS indoor, there is an urgent need for location-based services using beacons and an emergency evacuation system that intuitively shows evacuation routes in augmented reality using smart-phones. In this paper, an augmented reality-based emergency evacuation smartphone app was developed based on identifying fire locations and evacuation routes using beacons and fire sensors (IoT). In the future, if the proposed system is applied to indoor spaces where people are crowded, rapid evacuation will be possible even in a sudden fire accident, minimizing human damage.

Recently, with the development of digital, children are exposed to a lot of media media. Reading activity decreases, making it difficult to acquire information from books or organize and remember acquired information. Since education with augmented reality increases children's participation and immersion in learning, we proposed a reading activity application with augmented reality technology to increase children's reading interest and creativity. In addition, based on the five nurturing processes, we designed a play-oriented reading activity for the application. In addition to the application suggestions, we designed a play-centered lesson model so that it can be used in actual lessons. In order to analyze the conceptual thinking framework according to the lesson model design, we visited an actual daycare center and conducted a class attended by an expert. Experts who participated were asked to fill out a pre-produced questionnaire to review the suitability of the reading activity class model and operation, and the feasibility was examined. Our lesson model design was based on limited book content, and due to ethical concerns, large-scale experiments with children could not be conducted, so the results of the study are not representative of the whole. However, it is significant that the possibility of running a new reading activity class based on the Nuri course has been examined and proposed.

We present an augmented reality (AR) application for cell phone where users put a virtual pet on their palms and play/interact with the pet by moving their hands and fingers naturally. The application is fundamentally based on hand/palm pose recognition and finger motion estimation, which is the main concern in this paper. We propose a fast and efficient hand/palm pose recognition method which uses natural features (e.g. direction, width, contour shape of hand region) extracted from a hand image with prior knowledge for hand shape or geometry (e.g. its approximated shape when a palm is open, length ratio between palm width and pal height). We also propose a natural interaction method which recognizes natural motion of fingers such as opening/closing palm based on fingertip tracking. Based on the proposed methods, we developed and tested the AR application on an ultra-mobile PC (UMPC).

In the field of augmented reality technologies, commercial optical see-through-type wearable displays have difficulty providing immersive visual experiences, because users perceive different depths between virtual views on display surfaces and see-through views to the real world. Many cases of augmented reality applications have adopted eyeglasses-type displays (EGDs) for visualizing simple 2D information, or video see-through-type displays for minimizing virtual- and real-scene mismatch errors. In this paper, we introduce an innovative optical see-through-type wearable display hardware, called an EGD. In contrast to common head-mounted displays, which are intended for a wide field of view, our EGD provides more comfortable visual feedback at close range. Users of an EGD device can accurately manipulate close-range virtual objects and expand their view to distant real environments. To verify the feasibility of the EGD technology, subject-based experiments and analysis are performed. The analysis results and EGD-related application examples show that EGD is useful for visually expanding immersive 3D augmented environments consisting of multiple displays.

In today's rapidly developing technology, the traditional exhibition format of museums can no longer meet social needs. By analyzing the advantages and key technologies of extended reality technologies such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and hybrid reality, the museum XR exhibition interaction scheme is analyzed. Come to Discovery Museum. In this regard, this study first delves into the concept of XR technology, the concept and influencing factors of tourist experience, and the relationship between the application of XR technology and tourist experience through theoretical investigation. On this basis, representative paleontological museums in China and South Korea were selected, and the actual experience of visitors at the exhibition site and the application of XR technology were investigated through examples. Research has shown that the use of augmented reality technology can achieve seamless integration of virtual and real worlds in paleontological museums, extend viewing space, expand cultural heritage connotations, and revitalize cultural heritage. It provides visitors with a deeper interactive experience, enhances immersion and enriches display methods, making this type of museum more attractive. On this basis, XR technology helps museums achieve Digital transformation, and makes them have the advantages of sustainable development.
