Photographic Composition Guide for Photo Acquisition on Augmented Reality Glasses
Embedded Files
Capturing meaningful moments by using cameras is a major application of Augmented Reality Glasses (AR Glasses). Taking photos with head-mounted cameras of AR Glasses bring a new photo acquisition experience to users because there are no viewfinders conventional cameras have. Users may experience difficulties to figure out the region the head-mounted camera will capture on AR Glasses.
Misalignment between the camera and the human eyes. The scene captured by the camera will be different from what a user sees through his/her eyes.
To address this issue, we propose a photographic composition guide for AR Glasses. The proposed method analyzes video streams from the camera and automatically determine the image region that has a high aesthetic quality score. Photos taken from the recommended position result in a better photographic composition. Our method achieved 4.03 in Mean-Opinion-Score (MOS) test, demonstrating that our method corresponds to human’s expectation on aesthetic quality of photos.

Results of photographic composition guide. The yellow dot represents the recommended position to take a photo; As we can see, the photos taken at the recommended positions (right) captures better photographic compositions than the original photos (left).
