Abstract :
We propose a person annotation overlay system using a wearable computer for augmented reality environment which allows the user to recognize an unknown person. The system uses a combination of color and edge information to detect the face. Then, the system is applied to recognize multiple persons based on the face dictionary. Experimental results show that the proposed system is applicable to a visitor guider.
