Open Source AR Development Software - Page 2

The OpenSUSE Augmented Reality (OSAR) distribution is the first GNU / Linux appliance created for the exclusive development of applications with augmented reality technology and games with computer vision.

OpenCV-AR is a software library used for Augmented Reality development. It is targeted on Linux, though it is also able to work on Windows platform. It is an alternative to ARToolKit for Augmented Reality application development.

A new academic framework for augmented reality based on QVision and OpenCV. The project includes augmented reality detectors based on black&white patterns and natural features.

This library contains among other things a set of graphical widgets for video output, performance evaluation and augmented reality. The library also provides classes for several data types usually required by computer vision and image processing applications such as vectors, matrices, quaternions and images. Thanks to a large number of wrapper functions these objects can be used with highly efficient functionality from third party libraries such as OpenCV, GNU Scientific Library, Computational Geometry Algorithms Library, Intel's Math Kernel Library and Integrated Performance Primitives, the Octave library, etc...

RealityUI is a collection of user interface classes for RealityKit. The classes included in RealityUI aim to offer familiar User Interface guidelines, but in a 3D setting for Augmented and Virtual Reality through RealityKit. The User Interface controls in this repository so far are made to be familiar to what people are used to with 2D interfaces, however the plan is to expand the tools on offer to new and unique controls, which are more appropriate for an Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality context. RUISwitch is a 3D toggle switch with an on and off state. Default bounding box is 2x1x1m. RUIStepper is used to increment or decrement a value. Default bounding box is 2x1x0.25m. An interactive track to represent an interpolated value. Default bounding box is 10x1x1m including thumb. RUIButton is used to initiate a specified action. The action here will only trigger if the gesture begins on a button, and also ends on the same button.

Fusion of ARToolkit and Ogre3D, SimpleAugmentedReality is a augmented reality application which can display a 3D model over a live video stream from a webcam. Tracking of the object is handle by ARToolkit pattern.

This project aims to develop an interaction framework based on body detection by webcams, identifying the skeleton shape (hands, arms, head, legs etc), for games, virtual reality, augmented reality and other applications.

SudaRA is a C++ framework based on ARToolKit for development of Augmented Reality applications, offering features such as support for 3D models, sound, network, multiple-marker tracking, among others through a simple and well-structured interface.

A collection of C-based wrappers for managing marker-based tracking libraries, video libraries, tracking peripherals and their associated Unity Game Engine C# scripts designed to ease the development of augmented reality applications.

Use the WebXR Device API today, providing fallbacks to native WebVR 1.1 and Cardboard. A JavaScript implementation of the WebXR Device API, as well as the WebXR Gamepad Module. This polyfill allows developers to write against the latest specification, providing support when run on browsers that implement the WebVR 1.1 spec, or on mobile devices with no WebVR/WebXR support at all. The polyfill reflects the stable version of the API which has shipped in multiple browsers. If you are writing code against the WebVR 1.1 spec, use webvr-polyfill, which supports browsers with the 1.0 spec, or no implementation at all. It is recommended to write your code targeting the WebXR Device API spec however and use this polyfill as browsers begin to implement the latest changes. The minimal input controls currently supported by WebXR is polyfilled here as well, using the Gamepad API.

Mid air gestures are generally considered the interface of the future in a wide number of application fields and for virtual and augmented reality applications. However, designing effective interfaces with mid-air gestures, is not an easy task because it is application dependent and must fulfill many requirements at the same time. Despite the availability of general design guidelines in the literature, clear and well-established procedures for the optimal design of mid-air gesture-based interfaces are, to date, not available and still remain an open issue. The main contribution of this work is a user-centered and extensible framework, which integrates existing and novel methods. It supports the mid-air interface designer considering multiple aspects including ergonomics, memorability, and specific user requirements tailored to the application scenario. The framework involves three design steps and a final validation step, also supported by a dedicated software. We tested with success

utymap is a library that provides a highly customizable API for procedural world generation using real vector map data, e.g. OpenStreetMap, NaturalEarth. Core logic is written on C++11 and can be used on many platforms as it has no dependency to the specific game engine or application framework. It is designed for interactive world creation at different zoom levels, including globe and street level. The simplest way to explore the project is to check the source code of demo scenes. Import scene shows how to import map data from a file. Please note, that import and rendering logic depends on maps rules which means you cannot use arbitrary mapcss with the arbitrary data format. Elevation scene shows how elevation support works. Please note, as the scene loads multiple tiles at once, mapzen server might reject some of the requests. Also, first-time loading takes time, just wait a little bit and restart the scene again.
