Color harmonization for Augmented Reality

In this paper we discuss color harmonization for Augmented Reality. Color harmonization is a technique used to adjust the combination of colors in order to follow aesthetic guidelines. We implemented a system which is able to harmonize the combination of the colors in video based AR systems. The presented approach is able to re-color virtual and real-world items, achieving overall more visually pleasant results. In order to allow preservation of certain colors in an AR composition, we furthermore introduce the concept of constraint color harmonization.
