Description
Augmented-reality dressing applications are getting popular and with the latest usage of depth cameras also more practical.
A startup company in corporation with the Vienna University of Technology developed a prototype for virtually trying on spectacles.
The demo application is already finished, runs on a desktop PC and uses Microsoft Kinect for capturing face parameters.
It features two modes one for capturing customers and one for viewing spectacles on consumers' faces.
To reach a broader audience, the viewer functionality of this application should be ported to be usable in a web browser.
This Praktikum will be paid!
Task
Implement a web based viewer, capable of showing a sequence of captured images and augmenting them with 3D models of spectacles.
The application should feature controls to move, rotate and scale the 3D models in a user-friendly way.
One crucial task is to find and use a suitable engine/technology to reach as many users as possible!
Requirements
Good programming skills and basic rendering knowledge.
Environment
JavaScript and WebGL, Flash with Stage3D, Unity or another engine capable of running in a Web browser.
