Abstract

There are different ways to implement augmented reality. The marker method remains the most reliable and stable. An attempt has been made to determine which of the existing marker systems is better, more accurate, more reliable, and more convenient. A comparison of existing marker systems using visual markers encrypted using planar squares was made. The assessment was made based on criteria such as convenience, efficiency, accuracy, and reliability. Techniques used during the experiments: determination of processing time for detection and decoding of the marker, accuracy of determination of special points, recognition of the marker in case of projective distortions, recognition of several markers, recognition with a small area of the marker in the image, recognition in poor image focus. Four marker recognition systems were used for comparison. The evaluation results of both qualitative and quantitative in terms of ease of use, efficiency, accuracy, and reliability of such systems are presented. This provides an analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of various aspects of marker tracking systems.
