Today-s Comprehensive and Authoritative Guide to Augmented Reality
By overlaying computer-generated information on the real world, augmented reality (AR) amplifies human perception and cognition in remarkable ways. Working in this fast-growing field requires knowledge of multiple disciplines, including computer vision, computer graphics, and human-computer interaction. Augmented Reality: Principles and Practice integrates all this knowledge into a single-source reference, presenting today-s most significant work with scrupulous accuracy. Pioneering researchers Dieter Schmalstieg and Tobias H-llerer carefully balance principles and practice, illuminating AR from technical, methodological, and user perspectives.
