Feature Extraction in Augmented Reality

Augmented Reality (AR) is used for various applications associated with the real world. In this paper, first, describe characteristics and essential services of AR. Brief history on Virtual Reality (VR) and AR is also mentioned in the introductory section. Then, AR Technologies along with its workflow is depicted, which includes the complete AR Process consisting of the stages of Image Acquisition, Feature Extraction, Feature Matching, Geometric Verification, and Associated Information Retrieval. Feature extraction is the essence of AR hence its details are furnished in the paper.
