Seamless integration of mobile devices into interactive surface environments

Published: 11 November 2012 Publication History

Abstract

This poster abstract describes the seamless integration of uninstrumented mobile devices into an interactive surface environment. By combining a depth camera with a RGB camera for tracking, we are able to identify uninstrumented mobile devices using visual marker tracking. We describe the technical details of combining the two cameras and an example application for the integration of mobile devices.
