Abstract

Augmented reality (AR) is a highly interdisciplinary field which has received increasing attention since late 90s. Basically, it consists of a combination of the real scene viewed by a user and a computer generated image, running in real time. So, AR allows the user to see the real world supplemented, in general, with some information considered as useful, enhancing the users perception and knowledge of the environment. Benefits of reconfigurable hardware for AR have been explored by Luk et al. [4]. However, the wide majority of AR systems have been based so far on PCs or workstations.
