Don't look at "What topic I can use OSG for". That isn't really interesting at all from a research point of view - OSG is a technology, a tool if you want. If you start with that, you are putting yourself into a really difficult position later on when you will have to explain your actual research contribution in your thesis. We engineers often fall into a trap of building contraptions - but that is engineering, not research. Find an open problem in AR and try to solve that. If you can use OSG to help you, great. If not, well, tough, but the research is the first goal, not to use OSG. I suggest that you speak to your future thesis director (did you find one already?) first - they could help you both by having an overview of the state of the art in the field you are looking at and by knowing what the requirements for a good thesis are. Good luck! Jan
