Abstract
Commonly registration and tracking within Augmented Reality (AR) applications have been built around computervision techniques that use limited bold markers, which allow for their orientation to be estimated in real-time. Allattempts to implement AR without specific markers have increased the computational requirements and someinformation about the environment is still needed. In this paper we describe a method that not only provides aflexible platform for supporting AR but also seamlessly deploys High Performance Computing (HPC) resourcesto deal with the additional computational load, as part of the distributed High Performance Visualization (HPV)pipeline used to render the virtual artifacts. Repeatable feature points are extracted from known views of a realobject and then we match the best stored view to the users viewpoint using the matched feature points to estimatethe objects pose. We also show how our AR framework can then be used in the real world by presenting a marker-less AR interface for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS).
