Abstract

A method and system of position determination using image deformation is provided. One implementation involves storing an actual tag in a reference data module, receiving an image of a visual tag, the image captured by an image capturing device, comparing properties of the visual tag with properties of the actual tag; and based the comparison, determining a position of the image capturing device relative to the visual tag.
