Tint: Towards a pure python augmented reality framework

Research output: Chapters, Conference Papers, Creative and Literary WorksRGC 32 - Refereed conference paper (with host publication)peer-review

Abstract

This paper describes our software framework, called TINT, which is targeted towards rapid development of augmented reality applications. It is entirely written in the Python programming language and optimized with compiled modules to achieve realtime performance without sacrificing simplicity and maintainability. The design goal for TINT is, to make it possible to develop applications and framework components in pure Python code. This increases the productivity of the developer and is less error-prone.

TINT implements a set of components: dataflow network with hardware sensors, video-capturing, record / playback functionality, presentation library with compositing, networking, and application classes.

In this paper we give a high level overview of TINT and compare it with existing frameworks and libraries. We also elaborate in detail on our techniques to support realtime augmented reality applications written in pure Python and give some examples its usage.
