Abstract :
This paper presents a system to track position and orientation of a generic mobile device equipped with a camera using a set of variable size fiducial markers. The system provides six degrees-of-freedom (6-DOF) by tracking fiducial markers through the camera and deriving the position and orientation of the device, thus making possible the implementation of innovative and affordable 3D user interfaces. The system has been integrated in a Cave Automatic Virtual Environment (CAVE) through the use of projectors and polarizers.
