Quantitative performance evaluation in an augmented reality view enhancement driver assistant system

The temporally and spatially accurate display of information in augmented reality (AR) systems is essential for immersion and operational reliability when using the technology. We developed an assistant system using a head-mounted display (HMD) to hide visual restrictions on forklifts. We propose a method to evaluate the accuracy and latency of AR systems using HMD. For measuring accuracy, we compare the deviation between real and virtual markers. For latency measurement, we count the frame difference between real and virtual events. We present the influence of different system parameters and dynamics on latency and overlay accuracy.
