For retrieving information based on images, a first image is taken (S1 ) using a digital camera associated with a communication terminal (1). Query data related to the first image is transmitted (S3) via a communication network (2) to a remote recognition server (3). In the remote recognition server (3) a reference image is identified (S4) based on the query data. Subsequently, in the remote recognition server (3), a Homography is computed (S5) based on the reference image and the query data, the Homography mapping the reference image to the first image. Moreover, in the remote recognition server(3), a second image is selected (S6) and a projection image is computed (S7) of the second image using the Homography. By replacing a part of the first image with at least a part of the projection image, an augmented image is generated (S8, S10) and displayed (S11) at the communication terminal (1). Efficient augmentation of the first image taken with the camera is made possible by remaining in the planar space and dealing with two-dimensional images and objects only.
