New Arrivals in the Library: Augmented Reality: Principles and Practice by Dieter Schmalstieg and Tobias Hollerer


Today’s Comprehensive and Authoritative Guide to Augmented Reality


By overlaying computer-generated information on the real world, augmented reality (AR) amplifies human perception and cognition in remarkable ways. Working in this fast-growing field requires knowledge of multiple disciplines, including computer vision, computer graphics, and human-computer interaction. Augmented Reality: Principles and Practice integrates all this knowledge into a single-source reference, presenting today’s most significant work with scrupulous accuracy. Pioneering researchers Dieter Schmalstieg and Tobias Höllerer carefully balance principles and practice, illuminating AR from technical, methodological, and user perspectives.

Coverage includes

  • Displays: head-mounted, handheld, projective, auditory, and haptic
  • Tracking/sensing, including physical principles, sensor fusion, and real-time computer vision
  • Calibration/registration, ensuring repeatable, accurate, coherent behavior
  • Seamless blending of real and virtual objects
  • Visualization to enhance intuitive understanding
  • Interaction–from situated browsing to full 3D interaction
  • Modeling new geometric content
  • Authoring AR presentations and databases
  • Architecting AR systems with real-time, multimedia, and distributed elements

This guide is indispensable for anyone interested in AR, including developers, engineers, students, instructors, researchers, and serious hobbyists.

Vijaykumar Pereira (SFIT, Member) and Mr. Albert D’Souza (Chairman, Aldel Education Trust, Entrepreneur & Industrialist – Member).

During the exhibition, the vendors set up stalls with their latest editions of published books including textbooks, reference books, self help and books for children and teens from the leading publishers like Apress, Elsevier, CRC Press, Wiley, Pearson, Packt, etc. to attract visitors. The faculty members and students of SFIT can reviewed many books and recommended them for purchase for strengthening the physical book collection of Central Library and for project purposes for T.E. and B.E. students. The main aim of book exhibitions is not only getting recommendations, but it can also play an important role in developing the reading habit among professionals and bringing the institute community together.
