The paper presents basic concepts of augmented reality applications and challenges in building them in the web. We describe the technical and algorithmic stack required to develop, implement and deploy the augmented reality application. Theoretical concepts behind marker detection and tracking are discussed. Two different pipelines are implemented: server-based with algorithms execution in the cloud and completely front-end solution that runs on a user device. We show advantages and disadvantages of each approach and analyze experimental results as well.
