The evolution of technology has led the research into new emerging wearable devices such as the Smart Glasses. This technology provides with new visualization techniques. Augmented Reality is an advanced technology that could significantly ease the execution of much complex operations. Augmented Reality is a combination of both Virtual and Actual Reality, making accessible to the user new tools to safeguard in the transfer of knowledge in several environments and for several processes.
This thesis explores the development of an android based image recognition application. The feature point detectors and descriptors are used as they can deal great with the correspondence problems. The selection of best image recognition technique on the smart glasses is chosen based on the time taken to retrieve the results and the amount of power consumed in the process. As the smart glasses are equipped with the limited resources, the selected approach should use low computation on it by making the device operations uninterruptable. The effective and efficient method for detection and recognition of the safety signs from images is selected. The ubiquitous SIFT and SURF feature detectors consume more time and are computationally complex and require very high-level hardware components for processing. The binary descriptors are taken into account as they are light weight and can support low power devices in a much effective style. A comparative analysis is being done on the working of binary descriptors like BRIEF, ORB, AKAZE, FREAK, etc., on the smart glasses based on their performance and the requirements. ORB is the most efficient among the binary descriptors and has been more effective for the smart glasses in terms of time measurements and low power consumption.
