This task is encountered every day, sometimes incorrect reading of traffic signs can lead to very serious results. In particular, the Arabic language is very difficult, making recognizing and viewing Arabic text a difficult task. In this context, we are looking for an effective solution to remove errors and results that can sometimes end someone's life. This article aims to correctly read traffic signs with Arabic text using augmented reality technology. Our system is composed of three modules. The first is text detection and recognition. The second is Text visualization. The third is Text to speech methods conversion. With this system, the user can have two different results. The first result is visual with much-improved text and enhancement. The second result is sound, he can hear the text aloud. This system is very applicable and effective for daily life. To assess the effectiveness of our work, we offer a survey to a group of visually impaired people to give their opinion on the use of our application. The results have been good for most people.

This study summarizes dynamic visual representations and true 3D interactions as characteristics of augmented maps from the cartographic perspective through analysis of the research progress in different disciplines. From secondary viewpoints of cognition and design, the augmented map cube is presented to establish the research framework in three directions: cognitive purposes, information dimensions, and interactive devices, in which map-based spatial cognition theory, augmented visualization, and interactive features are considered. The research evaluation is carried out to determine the reasonableness of the cube and then identify different research statuses in any one or two of the directions under the cube. Based on a literature search and classification, 30 typical studies were used for structural analysis to discover research trends and new directions that can be mined. The results show that the cube can be used to evaluate the coverage of an article or provide researchers with research trends and new possibilities. Our conclusions include but are not limited to the following: Research for retrieval purposes deserves attention, augmented visualization of specific individual elements is key to understanding maps, and interactive devices become more intangible.

Photorealism in mixed reality: a systematic literature review / Lidiane Pereira in International journal of virtual reality, IJVR, Vol 21 n° 1 (2021)

In an ideal scenario, the user has the feeling that real and virtual objects coexist in the same space and is unable to differentiate the types of objects from each other. To achieve this goal, research on rendering techniques have been conducted in recent years. In this paper, we present a Systematic Literature Review aiming to identify the main characteristics concerning photorealism in Mixed and Augmented Reality systems to find research opportunities that can be further exploited or optimized. The objective is to verify if exists a definition of photorealism in Mixed and Augmented Reality. We present a theoreticalfundamental over the most used methods concerning realism in Computer Graphics. Also, we want to identify the most used methods and tools to enable photorealism in Mixed and Augmented Reality systems.

Semantic-aware label placement for augmented reality in street view / Jianqing Jia in The Visual Computer, vol 37 n° 7 (July 2021)

This paper introduces a label placement technique for AR used in street view scenarios. We propose a semantic-aware task-specific label placement method by identifying potentially important image regions through a novel feature map, which we refer to as guidance map. Given an input image, its saliency information, semantic information and the task-specific importance prior are integrated in the guidance map for our labeling task. To learn the task prior, we created a label placement dataset with the users’ labeling preferences, as well as use it for evaluation. Our solution encodes the constraints for placing labels in an optimization problem to obtain the final label layout, and the labels will be placed in appropriate positions to reduce the chances of overlaying important real-world objects in street view AR scenarios. The experimental validation shows clearly the benefits of our method over previous solutions in the AR street view navigation and similar applications.

An automatic workflow for orientation of historical images with large radiometric and geometric differences / Ferdinand Maiwald in Photogrammetric record, vol 36 n° 174 (June 2021)  

Public [article]  inPhotogrammetric record > vol 36 n° 174 (June 2021) . - pp 77 - 103 Titre : An automatic workflow for orientation of historical images with large radiometric and geometric differences Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Ferdinand Maiwald, Auteur ; Hans-Gerd Maas, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 77 - 103 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement d'image optique [Termes IGN] appariement de formes [Termes IGN] artefact [Termes IGN] classification par réseau neuronal convolutif [Termes IGN] extraction de traits caractéristiques [Termes IGN] image ancienne [Termes IGN] plus proche voisin, algorithme du [Termes IGN] réalité augmentée [Termes IGN] réalité virtuelle [Termes IGN] reconstruction 3D [Termes IGN] scène urbaine [Termes IGN] SIFT (algorithme) [Termes IGN] structure-from-motion Résumé : (auteur) This contribution proposes a workflow for a completely automatic orientation of historical terrestrial urban images. Automatic structure from motion (SfM) software packages often fail when applied to historical image pairs due to large radiometric and geometric differences causing challenges with feature extraction and reliable matching. As an innovative initialising step, the proposed method uses the neural network D2-Net for feature extraction and Lowe’s mutual nearest neighbour matcher. The principal distance for every camera is estimated using vanishing point detection. The results were compared to three state-of-the-art SfM workflows (Agisoft Metashape, Meshroom and COLMAP) with the proposed workflow outperforming the other SfM tools. The resulting camera orientation data are planned to be imported into a web and virtual/augmented reality (VR/AR) application for the purpose of knowledge transfer in cultural heritage.
