Abstract: Augmented Reality (AR) is basically a real view modified by a computer. It uses computer generated imagery and sounds to enhance one’s current perception of reality. While virtual reality (VR) describes an imaginary world that exists in computers and our minds, augmented reality is a mixture of real world and virtual world. The proposed work helps handicap people to turn ON/OFF home appliances without moving their position by fixing the set up in their wheel chair using AR. This set up also prevent the users from getting electrocuted. A projector projects the virtual keys onto the board's surface where users control the devices using a pen, finger, stylus or other device. Touch interaction on a flat surface was supported by the system. To achieve this goal, it is explored with finger’s influence on the button’s distortion and built a model to describe the button’s distortion. As a result, the devices perform the respective action. In the proposed system virtual based display images of buttons are used. Key is pressed and then picture is captured by wireless camera, image is processed in visual studio platform to perform a corresponding task.
