Abstract: A computer-implemented method of augmented reality includes capturing the video flux with a video camera, extracting, from the video flux, one or more 2D images each representing the real object, and obtaining a 3D model representing the real object. The method also includes determining a pose of the 3D model relative to the video flux, among candidate poses. The determining rewards a mutual information, for at least one 2D image and for each given candidate pose, which represents a mutual dependence between a virtual 2D rendering and the at least one 2D image. The method also includes augmenting the video flux based on the pose. This forms an improved solution of augmented reality for augmenting a video flux of a real scene including a real object.

The 2D images all represent a same real object. The real object is fixed. The method also includes obtaining, for each 2D image, a smooth map. The smooth map has pixel values, and each pixel value represents a measurement of contour presence. The method also includes determining a 3D modeled object that represents the real object.
