Alarmed by the Roman occupation of Caucasian Albania, Artag promised peace and friendship; but Pompey, informed that he was secretly arming so as to fall upon the Romans on their march in the passes of the Caucasus, advanced in the spring of 65 BC, before resuming the pursuit of Mithridates, to the Iberian strongholds of Harmozica and Seusamora (Tsumar) at Mtskheta. Artoces, surprised by the enemy before he was aware of it, hastily burnt the bridge over the Kura and retreated negotiating into the interior. Pompey occupied the fortresses and followed the Iberians to the other bank of the river; by which he hoped to induce them to immediate submission. But Artoces retired farther and farther into the interior, and, when at length he halted on the river Pelorus, he did so not to surrender but to fight. The Iberian archers however withstood not for a moment the onset of the Roman legions, and, when Artoces saw the Pelorus also crossed by the Romans, he surrendered, and sent his children as hostages. He finished out his life as a tributary of Rome officially named as a “friend and ally of Rome".

ARTag Revision 1, A Fiducial Marker System Using Digital Techniques | Publications | NRC-IIT (358 words)
ARTag is a marker system that uses digital coding theory to get a very low false positive and inter-marker confusion rate with a smaller required maker size, employing an edge linking method to give robust lighting and occlusion immunity.
ARTag markers are bi-tonal planar patterns that consist of a square outline with a digital 36-bit word encoded in the interior.
ARTag’s performance is theoretically or experimentally examined for nice characteristics import to AR; false positive and false negative detection rates, inter-marker confusion probabilities, immunity to lighting, immunity to occlusion, minimal marker size, vertex jitter, marker library size, and speed performance.
ARTag (1676 words)
ARTag consists of a library of patterns, which when mounted on a flat surface by themself (or now in arrays) and viewed by a video camera or webcam, can be robustly identified.
ARTag Rev2 is available, it includes marker arrays, OpenGL support, and an SDK that is ready to use immediately.
ARTag is a "fiducial marker system", it consists of a library of markers and the computer vision algorithms to detect them when seen in a camera image.
