Aligning the real space with the model on see-through typed HMD for mixed reality
In this paper, we propose an approach to align the real space with the three-dimensional (3D) model for outdoor wearable mixed reality (MR) system. In our approach, we use a monocular see-through typed head-mounted display (ST-HMD) and a virtual reality (VR) sensor. We can measure six degree-of-freedom (6DOF) using this sensor. In the default setting, it is difficult and burden for people to handle the 3D model using air mouse. Therefore, we reduce the burden by automating the default setting. Moreover, when the user changes the viewpoint, we need to change the computer graphics (CG) model on ST-HMD with corresponding to the real objects of the difference in vision. We obtain the translation and rotation data from VR sensor to reflect the CG model. Then, we structured the alignment system in this system. Furthermore, in order to evaluate the proposed alignment for three-dimensional (3D) model, we show some results of the wearable aligning system using the 3D model.
