Q2. What have the authors stated for future works in "Modern approaches to augmented reality" ?
However, LEPs have not yet left the basic research stages and will not be applicable to build stereoscopic AR displays in the near future.
Q3. What are the main components for the creation of optical overlays in combination with spatial secondary screens?
Planar mirror beam combiners that produce true stigmatic reflections between all object-image pairs, and convexly curved mirror beam combiners that represent non-absolute optical systems represent the main components for the creation of optical overlays in combination with spatial secondary screens.
Q4. What is the reflection transformation of planar mirrors?
Note that the reflection transformation of planar mirrors is a rigid-body transformation, and preserves all properties of the transformed geometry.
Q5. What is the way to describe the dimensions of a mirror and screen?
Having a geometric representation (e.g., a triangle mesh) to approximate the mirror's and the screen’s surfaces, M and S , supports a flexible way of describing the dimensions of arbitrary shapes.
Q6. What are the lenses used for optical combiners?
From an optics point of view, the glass or Plexiglas carriers used for optical combiners (i.e., mirror beam combiner or transparent screens) are lenses that cause refraction distortion.
Q7. What is the advantage of a networked cluster of rendering nodes?
To efficiently support simultaneous rendering for multiple viewers on cost-effective rendering platforms (e.g., PCs), a networked cluster of rendering nodes could be applied.
Q8. Why is the refraction distortion of the mirror beam combiner not taken into account?
Due to the lack of eye-tracking technology as component of head-mounted displays, the rotation of the eye-balls and the exact position as well as the movement of the optics in front of the observer’s eyes is not taken into account.
Q9. What makes the computation of the resulting displacement error fairly complex?
The nature of the additional mirror optics makes the transformation of the grid patches and the computation of the resulting displacement error fairly complex.
Q10. How can the sub-pipelines be performed on the same computer?
The sub-pipelines can be carried out sequentially on the same computer (i.e., by rendering each image into the frame buffer before swapping it).
Q11. What is the effect of beam combiners on the perceived graphical images?
If such beam combiners are integrated into the optical path between observer and secondary screen, the perceived graphical images are transformed and distorted by the optical elements.
Q12. What is the way to compute reflected viewpointiji?
To support configurations that apply multiple planar beam combiners and a single screen the following algorithm can be applied for a single user:for left and right viewpoints i for each to i front-facing beam combiner jinitialize transformation pipeline and polygon order compute reflected viewpointiji eRe ='compute refraction offset ijΔ fori and j set transformation pipeline:
