What is Augmented Reality?
Augmented Reality is a new technologie wich provides a mean to blend virtual imaging into the video stream of a mobile device's camera - in real time.
This page presents the related int13 R&D work & projects. We strongly believe that Augmented Reality is a promising idea to enhance the player's gaming experience in providing exciting new ways to control his actions, through position and 3D moves.
Despite their limited computation power, we think handheld devices are the best choice if we want to provide a truly immersive Augmented Reality experience, as most of these devices have a camera on their back, just behind the screen, which is the only way to achieve see-through effect at mass-market cost.

Technology - ARWiz
ARWiz is our mobile augmented reality library. We created it from scratch after evaluating the performance of open-source solutions, which left us disappointed.
Our AR technology is still evolving, but ARWiz already boasts some interesting features, including:
- Algorithms designed to take into account the constraints of the ARM architecture
- Ultra fast: 1 ms to 5 ms maximum of processing on a Smartphone
- Subpixel precision during the marker detection
- Optimized calculations to avoid error propagation
- Great pose stability, which dismisses the need for a filter
- No external dependencies and a very compact code
