Smooth Transitioning Between two Walking Metaphors for Virtual Reality Applications
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
Virtual navigation should be as similar as possible to how we move in the real world, however the limitations of hardware and physical space make this a challenging problem. Tracking natural walk is only feasible when the ...
Prototype of an Automatic Registration System for the Remains of Archaeological Sites
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
Data acquisition in archaeological excavations is a time consuming task developed on site that must be completed later with the information stored in the database. In this paper, we introduce the work in progress for the ...
Virtual Reality Callouts - Demonstrating Knowledge With Spatial-Related Textual Information
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
Virtual (VR) and augmented reality (AR) can bring an added value during the demonstration of knowledge, as for example within an interactive research demo. Callouts are strings of text which are connected by a line to a ...
Controlling 3D Visualisations with Multiple Degrees of Freedom
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
In this paper, the two major components of a new multi-layer framework ideal for two-handed interaction in desktop virtual environments called Library for Interactive Settings of User-Mode (LISU) are explained. In addition, ...
Comparing Gestural Interfaces using Kinect and OpenPose
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
We describe the implementation of a gesture recognition facility for navigating through virtual reality applications in a shared VR facility. An implementation based around the Microsoft Kinect is described and the fruits ...
Optimising Underwater Environments for Mobile VR
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
Mobile Virtual Reality (VR) has advanced considerably in the last few years, driven by advances in smartphone technology. There are now a number of commercial offerings available, from smartphone powered headsets to ...
Projectional Radiography Simulator: an Interactive Teaching Tool
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
Radiographers need to know a broad range of knowledge about X-ray radiography, which can be specific to each part of the body. Due to the harmfulness of the ionising radiation used, teaching and training using real patients ...
A Somatic Approach to Combating Cybersickness Utilising Airflow Feedback
(The Eurographics Association, 2019)
Abstract This paper presents a novel somatosensory approach towards reducing the risk of cybersickness during virtual reality locomotion in a 3D environment. We start by presenting theories regarding the cause of cybersickness ...
