This paper presents a real-time Augmented Reality Navigation system (ARNavi) on Android mobile phone that exploits theparallel computing power of mobile GPUs. Unlike conventional navigation systems, our proposed ARNavi augments navigationinformation onto live video streaming from device camera in real-time. The contributions of this paper are two-fold. First, wepropose a fast and accurate lane detection and mapping algorithms. Second, we demonstrate that real-time augmented realitynavigation can be achieved by taking advantage of CPU-GPU heterogeneous computing technology on a mobile processor. We achieveup to 18 FPS for 640×360 resolution camera streaming. It is more than 2.6× speedup over CPU only execution.
