I have introduced in this post about how Nico Nico users played around with AR toolkit and made Miku Dance. In those videos, Miku was on the table / indoors, and the location was not tracked.
PTAM(Parallel tracking and mapping) is a technology to connect AR (using hand-held camera) and simultaneous / visual localisation and mapping.
Georg Klein, a post-doctoral research assistant at Oxford (and David Murray) had been doing research on this.
Here you can see his website where he puts all the info including his presentation file at ISMAR 2007, source code, and videos.
NicoNicoDouga user saw this, and created a virtual Miku that walks on the public road :P
