In order to obtain more ideal effect of the augmented reality, this paper puts forward an augmented reality algorithm based on Android platform. Firstly, the feature positions in the two image corner points are determined by using FAST algorithm, and SURF is used to generate feature descriptor, and then the fast approximate proximal point search algorithm is used to match, finally, implemented in the Android platform and the performance is test by simulation experiment. The simulation results show that, the proposed algorithm has the advantages of Android and can meet the augmented reality real-time requirements, but also has good robustness, overcomes the limitation of traditional augmented reality technology.
