Pan Hui |Mobile Augmented Reality

[mks_dropcap style="square" size="55" bg_color="#ffffff" txt_color="#dd3333"]M[/mks_dropcap]obile Augmented Reality (MAR) is widely regarded as one of the most promising technologies in the next ten years. With MAR, we are able to blend information from our senses and mobile devices in myriad ways that were not possible before. The way to supplement the real world other than to replace real world with an artificial environment makes it especially preferable for applications such as tourism, navigation, entertainment, advertisement, and education. In this talk, I will first give an overview of the MAR research in our HKUST-DT System and Media Lab and then I will use two systems that we have developed as examples to illustrate the research challenges that we have to face for our research. These two MAR systems are Ubii – Ubiquitous Interface for Seamless Interaction between Digital and Physical Worlds, and Hyperion – A Wearable Augmented Reality System for Text Extraction and Manipulation in the Air. I will go through them in details.

He is currently a faculty member of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology where he directs the HKUST-DT System and Media Lab ( http://symlab.ust.hk ). He is an adjunct Professor of social computing and networking at Aalto University Finland and also served as a Distinguished Scientist for Telekom Innovation Laboratories (T-labs) Germany until 2015. Before returning to Hong Kong in 2013, he has spent several years in T-labs and Intel Research Cambridge. He has published more than 150 research papers with over 9,000 citations and has around 30 granted / filed European patents. He has founded and chaired several IEEE/ACM conferences/workshops, and has been serving on the organising and technical program committee of numerous international conferences including ACM SIGCOMM, IEEE Infocom, ICNP, SECON, MASS, Globecom, WCNC, ITC, ICWSM and WWW. He is an associate editor for IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing and IEEE Transactions on Cloud Computing.

“移动增强现实”（AR，或译扩增实境技术被广泛认为是接下来的十年当中最有前途的技术之一。通过移动增强现实，我们可以用无数种方式把来自我们感官和移动设备的信息融合起来，而这在以前是不可能的。这种通过人工环境补充现实世界而非替代现实世界的方式，尤其适用于旅游、航行、娱乐、广告和教育等应用领域。在这次演讲中，我会首先做一个在我们“系统与媒体实验室”（香港科技大学和德国电信合作组建）中进行的关于移动增强现实技术的研究概述。然后，我会用两个我们已经研发出的系统－Ubii和Hyperion作为例子，来说明研究中不得不面对的挑战。Ubii是数码和物理世界之间无缝互动的介面，Hyperion是可穿戴的增强现实系统，用来在空中进行文本提取和操作。我会通过它们进行详细介绍。
