Augmented reality for artificial optical radiation measurement

Augmented reality application, has received considerable interest in recent years with the advent of specialized applications and data fusion from different visual sources. In this paper, we present a novel mobile augmented reality system for artificial optical radiation (AOR) identification and measurement. The system has been designed to help experts (both medical doctors and engineers) deal with AOR related problem in their fields according to the European Directive 2006/25/EC (Occupational health and safety). An innovative tracking system, based on image retrieval paradigms, has been used in image registration.
