1st International Workshop on Recognition Based Augmented Reality Summary

Summary form only given. The technology of AR has evolved to a point where there are well established methods to annotate the world using known markers, and more recently, the spatial 3D information on the environment itself. This has resulted in AR been nowadays widely experienced by a large number of people in a variety of situations. However, in order to take AR to the next level, it is essential to consider methods that allow the automated detection of objects, materials and shapes. One way to fulfil this goal is to develop AR that incorporates the recognition of visual object detection and use these to enhance the places and situations where current AR methods have not explored. Of interest for this goal are methods that include large-scale object recognition to distinguish and locate objects or materials, and go beyond using traditional markers. This workshop will showcase some examples of this nascent area and hopes to attract discussion among the ISMAR community of how best to incorporate object and pattern recognition that takes AR to the next levels.
