Quick Recap

• Development of an interface that does the following: • A very large virtual screen is

imagined to exist, • The mobile phone screen is used

as a "peephole" into that interface.

Design Decisions and System Changes

PREVIOSLY CURRENTLY

• No NDK • Uses NDK

• Use Android camera API • Uses device’s camera natively

• Didn’t use sensor readings • Uses both accelerometer and gyroscope

• Display was modifies camera frames • 3D interface

NDK

Implementation

Get frames Process frames

Get sensor readings

Output

Finding and Tracking Features• The Shi-Tomasi Corner Detector

• Based on the Harris Corner Detector. • Tries to find little patches of image that generate a large variation when moved around.• Ultimately finds small corners in a frame.

• Lucas & Kanade Method• Technique which can provide an estimate of the movement of certain features in successive images of a

scene.• Algorithm makes a "best guess" of the displacement of a neighbourhood by looking at changes in pixel

intensity.• These intensities are known through intensity gradients of the image in that neighbourhood.

User Interface using camera framesMoving the device without tilt will move the interface
