Robustness of Motion Tracking - ARCore

Google ARCore is constantly tracking the device's 6DoF motion and generating 3-D point cloud.

CurvSurf FindSurface has determined the size & position of the ball by sphere fitting to the point cloud.

Now, the robustness of motion tracking of ARCore is to be tested by shaking the device.

Tools used:
- Samsung Galaxy S8+
- Google ARCore 2.0
- OpenGL ES 3.1
- CurvSurf FindSurface.

CurvSurf FindSurface is now available via web-service.
The current release is an open prototype version.

Source codes for 'FindSurface Web API' are available:
https://github.com/CurvSurf/FindSurfaceWeb-Basic-Sample

Before the coming season's Holiday, the 'FindSurface Web Demo' (https://developers.curvsurf.com:50677/F ... ignin.html) will be accessible without ID & PW.


youtu.be/oKlxI2r2oWU

Further details and source codes will be released in 1Q 2020.

NOTE: As of now, we only have one server in South Korea for a test purpose so it might take a long time to upload/download, which leads to high latency.
So only use it for a test purpose. The same goes for the Web API and we are relying on extending our server in a further contract.

The FindSurface Web Demo is now accessible and the functionality of FindSurface can be tested by using a web-browser.

Please refer to the user's manual for how to use.

Boundary points of Boundary points

FindSurface Web Demo


youtu.be/KhKWgws_8ik

The boundary points of the boundary points should be ignored and eliminated as outliers of an object surface.

A 3-D measurement point is a probable observation of an unknown real object point, a surface point (i.e., a boundary point) between two real 3-D volumes.

A point cloud is a collection of 3-D measurement points, subject to errors. The boundary points of point cloud regions (blobs, clusters) are 'the boundary points of the boundary points.' They are inaccurate, unstable and unreliable.

And, there are usually multiple objects in a measurement scene. FindSurface is the solution for determining the parameters of an object surface in a scene, including the shape, size, position and orientation.

Tools used:
- FindSurface for Web
- Google Tango (offline)

_________________
Orthogonal Distance Fitting (ODF) minimizes the sum of the squared distances between the data points and the surface to be fitted. Not only the sum but also the individual distances between the data points and the surface should be minimized.

If the orthogonal (minimum, shortest) distance between a data point and the surface is larger than the threshold value, it will be classified as outlier point and eliminated.

The orthogonal distance is the best discriminator between inlier and outlier, because a dimensional measurement point is a probable observation of an unknown real object point next to the measurement point.

We have added some UI elements for a better use of FindSurface Web Demo (Source codes are available).
  • Arrow keys for rotating the view
  • Mouse wheel for zooming in/out
  • Depth map for visualizing the point distances from camera
  • Probe radius to control the sensitivity of point picking.
For example, if the probe radius is set to 4, the topmost (in depth-order) point among the points having max 4 pixel screen distance from the mouse cursor will be selected. To select precisely a point, you should set the probe radius to a small value. To prevent an unintended selection of a point in background, you should set the probe radius to a large value.

Click & Clear - FindSurface Web Demo

In one minute, 15 geometric features (3 planes, 10 cylinders, 1 cone, and 1 torus) are extracted.

It's averagely 4 seconds per extraction.
5G connection will accelerate them.
