Data compression for photo-based augmented reality on a tablet

Photo-based Augmented Reality (Photo AR) is an AR system implemented by rendering multi-viewpoint photo images. While having an advantage that this system doesn't require 3D models, this system consumes a large volume of disk space. To resolve this problem, we have proposed the data compression method that handles photo images as video format. However, this method is impractical due to security restriction on a tablet device. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to consider a practical data compression method for Photo AR on a tablet.
