Text localization and recognition in 3D
point cloud environment are challenging tasks. In this paper, we introduce
a method to adapt 2D text detection and recognition
techniques in panorama images with appropriate map-
ping; combined with some heuristic methodologies such
as artificial camera to create a fast and efficient 3D
text localization and recognition system. The simplistic nature of this system is attractive and computationally inexpensive because it focuses on 2D processing instead of 3D. The system shows promising results
with over 90% accuracy for detection, localization tasks
and 95% on recognition task.

During this presentation we will expose our return on experience and identify key factors allowing AR application developers to focus on their application use cases and not on implementing the technology to make them work. With Unreal Engine's extensive support for XR platforms and devices, you can use Unreal Engine to deploy your project to any XR platform as well as utilize the immersive devices in your content creation pipeline. Epic Games is one of the founding members of the OpenXR Working Group along with the Khronos Group and industry partners. This multi-company group is working to solve XR fragmentation with a cross-platform standard.

Back to the mission : changing focus from the tech to the operational use cases.

Limited performance of mobile AR and VR devices. Time-consuming cross-platform development. Concerns about data privacy. While immersive technologies are a big driver for global digitization, the XR community faces major challenges that apply to every player in the field. This presentation introduces a new cross-platform approach to XR streaming. A technology that enables an unprecedented level of detail and performance for a faster and safer way of developing, experiencing and interacting with 3D content. Gain useful insights into how remote rendering works and its benefits. Learn about first-hand examples of streaming entire XR applications with ISAR SDK.

Emerging Augmented Reality (AR) headsets hold great promise for enhancing Soldier effectiveness by improving situational awareness and decision-making in operations and increasing training efficiency through high fidelity training scenarios. Future multidomain operations (MDOs) will present Soldiers with significant quantities of complex and rapidly changing information. How do we develop human-centered AR systems that provide overmatch in MDO when AR technology itself is constantly evolving? Rapid prototyping and simulation of AR capabilities in Virtual Reality (VR) can address this need. Simulating AR capabilities in VR enables full control over hardware and software features coupled with the ability to simulate realistic and Soldier-relevant tasks to assess the human performance impacts of emerging capabilities and design decisions. In this talk I present two such simulation experiments to investigate emerging AR capabilities.

Enabling Human-Centered AR Through VR Human Performance Experimentation

ARRMSS provides the ability for a fleet maintainer to communicate with a Subject Matter Expert (SME) remotely using video/audio/text with the added capabilities of the SME being able to place augmentations/drawings/files onto systems and objects in the maintainer’s field of view to help guide them during operation/maintenance/troubleshooting. Allowing the SME to see in real-time what the maintainer sees can exponentially help reduce system downtime and improve fleet performance.
