Abstract(in English) Nowadays, majority of PC producers provide their product support services via visual call centers. At times, users cannot describe their problems correctly which causes waste of time. We propose a new solution for PC based visual call center applications. The video images taken by the user's portable camera are used for smooth communications between the user and the operator at the visual call center. To protect the user's privacy, only the PC in the video images should be visible to the operator. This paper proposes a marker based method for detecting the PC in real-time. The design of the markers that are attached to the PC are discussed and studied. A modified Chamfer Matching Algorithm is used for detecting the markers. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method.
