Desargues theorem for augmented reality applications

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a new approach for some augmented reality applications by exploiting minimal geometric knowledge and using Desargues theorem. The idea underlying our approach is to use a generalization of Desargues theorem in uncalibrated images context. This approach allows the realization of three applications that includes: points matching, novel view synthesis and adding a virtual object to real scene. Examples on real and synthetic images are presented.
