Abstract
Image target tracking is a technique widely used in a variety of augmented reality (AR) applications to trigger AR interaction and accurately locate virtual objects relative to physical space. This project is a Unity image tracking pipeline based on the ORB feature detection and description technique that seeks to be robust enough to track images despite partial occlusion, uneven lighting, and image target depth. This pipeline employs compute shader code to conduct image tracking computations on the GPU to track images in real-time for mobile AR apps.
