Researchers from Technical University of Munich and Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg developed GBOT, a graph-based 3D object tracking system designed for Augmented Reality assembly guidance, which achieves 92.4% ADD/ADD-S accuracy with a 2.6 cm translation error in real-time, even under challenging conditions. The work also introduces the GBOT dataset, a synthetic RGB-D benchmark for dynamic multi-object assembly scenarios.

Key insights

  • Integrating initial 6D pose estimation (via adapted YOLOv8Pose) with continuous graph-based tracking effectively addresses both real-time performance and robustness for AR assembly.
  • The proposed multi-state assembly graph, which dynamically adapts to changing kinematic relationships, improves tracking accuracy and resilience to occlusions during complex assembly sequences.
  • Generating a comprehensive synthetic dataset with extensive domain randomization, including hand occlusions and varied lighting, is essential for training models that perform well in real-world AR environments.
