Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products which have the registration accuracy of vision-based tracking systems and the robustness of magnetic tracking systems. Video tracking of landmarks is utilized as the primary method for determining camera position and orientation but is enhanced by magnetic or other forms of physical tracking camera movement and orientation. A physical tracker narrows the landmark search area on images, speeding up the landmark search process. Information from the physical tracker may also be used to select one of several solutions of a non-linear equation resulting from the vision-based tracker. The physical tracker may also act as a primary tracker if the image analyzer cannot locate enough landmarks to provide proper registration, thus, avoiding complete loss of registration. Furthermore, if 1 or 2 landmarks (not enough for a unique solution) are detected, several may be utilized heuristic methods are used to minimize registration loss.
