Google Tango Outdoors. Augmented Reality for Underground Infrastructures
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Underground infrastructures, which support much of the services provided to citizens, have the peculiarity of not being directly visible. This leads to problems when making incursions for maintenance or creating new ...
A 3 Cent Recognizer: Simple and Effective Retrieval and Classification of Mid-air Gestures from Single 3D Traces
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
In this paper we present a simple 3D gesture recognizer based on trajectory matching, showing its good performances in classification and retrieval of command gestures based on single hand trajectories. We demonstrate that ...
Single-Handed vs. Two Handed Manipulation in Virtual Reality: A Novel Metaphor and Experimental Comparisons
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
In this paper we present a novel solution for single-handed deviceless object manipulation (e.g. picking/translating, rotating and scaling) in immersive visualization environments. The new method is based on degree of ...
User Interaction Feedback in a Hand-Controlled Interface for Robot Team Tele-operation Using Wearable Augmented Reality
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Continuous advancements in the field of robotics and its increasing spread across heterogeneous application scenarios make the development of ever more effective user interfaces for human-robot interaction (HRI) an extremely ...
Data Painter: A Tool for Colormap Interaction
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
The choice of a mapping from data to color should involve careful consideration in order to maximize the user understanding of the underlying data. It is desirable for features within the data to be visually separable and ...
An Adaptive AR Tutor For Cabling a Network Topology
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
We present an Augmented Reality (AR) network cabling tutor that provides visual annotations for improving learning in psychomotor tasks. Unlike many existing AR learning systems, our system combines AR with an intelligent ...
A taxonomy of motion applications in data visualization
(Association for Computing Machinery, Inc (ACM), 2017)
We propose a new taxonomy that explains the roles of motion in data visualization, focusing especially on their communicative aspects. Our taxonomy clarifies the main axis in how visualization designers can employ motion ...
Visual Analysis of Geo-spatial Data in 3D Terrain Environments using Focus+Context
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Visual analysis of geo-spatial data represented within a three-dimensional frame of reference is a challenging task. Focus+ Context is a common concept that aids this process. This paper addresses the question, how ...
User-study Based Optimization of Fast and Accurate Mahalanobis Brushing in Scatterplots
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Brushing is at the heart of most modern visual analytics solutions with coordinated, multiple views and effective brushing is crucial for swift and efficient processes in data exploration and analysis. Given a certain data ...
Comparative Evaluation of Sensor Devices for Micro-Gestures
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
This paper presents a comparative evaluation of two gesture recognition sensors and their ability to detect small, movements known as micro-gestures. In this work we explore the capabilities of these devices by testing if ...
