AUGMENTED REALITY

Work by Burkhard Wuensche and Bruce MacDonald

Software binds together the components and eases the development of control systems. Use of open source robotics development environment (OpenRTM-aist) with other open source simulation packages to simulate and evaluate performance of control software in AR.  Use of standardised robotics toolkit and opensource.
