"A Framework For Perceptual Studies In Photorealistic Augmented Reality";
Talk: IEEE Virtual Reality, Singapore (invited); 2011-03-19.

In photorealistic augmented reality virtual objects are integrated in the real world in a seamless visual manner. To obtain a perfect visual augmentation these objects must be rendered indistinguishable from real objects and should be perceived as such. In this paper we propose a research test bed framework to study the different unresolved perceptual issues in photorealistic augmented reality and its application to different disciplines. The framework computes a global illumination approximation in real-time and therefore leverages a new class of experimental research topics.
