Subject: | AW: Information about commercial AR-System from Augmented Solutions | ||
Hi René, thanks for your interest in our AR-System. I had many people writing me after your inquiry. I am aware that this is not a commercial newsgroup but still I want to answer the most common questions asked about our system. - Is it AR-Tool-Kit? No, it is not AR-Tool-Kit, although we have profited a lot from the research done by the Tool-Kit community. We have developed the system from our knowledge in industrial computer vision applications. - How does it work? It is the classic marker-based approach. We are using round and square markers tracked with sub-pixel accuracy which makes the tracking robust. We are offering an ActiveX component running in IE 5.5 or higher. We have an VB interface for the system. - How much is the System? It depends on what you are planning to do with it. We are currently selling a reduced "campus-license" for academic users of the system. - What graphics format is supported? We are currently supporting VRML-97. Other formats on request. I hope this answers some of the questions, Best wishes Thomas Hi, im an CS-Student interessted in Augmented Reality. At this years Cebit I have had the chance to see a live demo of the commercial AR-System (Marker-based) from Augmented Solutions (www.ar-solutions.de). It seemed to work really fast (60fps) and stable. Does anyone have Infos about the system ? Is it AR-Toolkit ? I need an fast and reliable AR-System for an industry reasearch project an was wondering if I can get my hands on a comparable system for free. Any help appreciated, René |
