Advanced Inertial-Optical Tracking System for Wide Area Mixed and Augmented Reality Systems
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
InterSense is introducing a vastly improved version of its wide-area tracking inertial-optical tracking system (IS-1200 VisTracker). The new VisTracker technology has several enhancements including device miniaturization, ...
Augmentation of Visualisation Using Sonification: A Case Study in Computational Fluid Dynamics
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
Advances in computer processing power and networking over the past few years have brought significant changes to the modeling and simulation of complex phenomena. Problems that formerly could only be tackled in batch mode, ...
Monocular Head Tracking for Desktop Virtual Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
We present an approach to head tracking to be applied in desktop virtual environments. The system is able to estimate both the position and orientation of the user s head using only monocular view. In our approach, the ...
Direct Visuo-Haptic Display System Using a Novel Concept
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
In this short paper we describe a Direct Visuo-Haptic Display System (DVHDS) setup based on a DLP projector, an overhead projection plane and a half silvered mirror. The system is specifically designed for being integrated ...
Hybrid Information Presentation: Combining a Portable Augmented Reality Laser Projector and a Conventional Computer Display
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
We present a three dimensional, user centered instruction placement system that is geared toward supporting high quality ubiquitous information presentation in industrial environments. Our system uses a hybrid information ...
A Quantitative Assessment of the Impact on Spatial Understanding of Exploring a Complex Immersive Virtual Environment using Augmented Real Walking versus Flying
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
When an immersive virtual environment spans an area that is larger than the available physical space for real walking, one may use an augmented walking method such as Seven League Boots to enable participants to explore ...
Improved 3D Interactive Devices for Passive and Active Stereo Virtual Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
This paper introduces a new set of tracking devices for 3D virtual environment interaction and reviews enhancements including device miniaturization, power reduction, and ruggedization. The goal of these improvements was ...
Using Proprioception as a Cue towards Effective Spatial Input in VR: a Framework for an Experimental Study
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)
We developed a free form deformation application for an immersive environment in which users can interact freely by using datagloves. In this paper, we present an experimental protocol designed to investigate the contribution ...
