    Exploring Ownership of an Avatar's Cat Ears through Visual, Auditory, and Haptic Multimodal Feedback
    (The Eurographics Association, 2025) Yamamura, Hiroo; Kondo, Ryota; Sakurada, Kuniharu; Normand, Jean-Marie; Sugimoto, Maki; Garro, Valeria; Young, Gareth; Elwardy, Majed
    Extensions of body parts that humans are not innately endowed with, such as supernumerary limbs, have attracted attention. Since these body parts resemble existing ones, their movements and sensations can be inferred from the innately existing body parts. However, the sense of ownership for imaginary body parts, such as cat ears, which humans have never possessed, has not been sufficiently investigated. This paper proposes an experiment to examine the changing sense of ownership of cat ears, a body part that humans are not innately endowed with, through multimodal feedback that integrates visual, auditory, and haptic stimuli. Using an avatar with cat ears attached to the top of the head, we suggest presenting visual stimuli of the avatar's cat ears along with spatially congruent auditory and haptic feedback to enhance the sense of ownership over imaginary cat ears.

    Narrowcasting for Stereoscopic Photospherical Cinemagraphy
    (The Eurographics Association, 2019) Cohen, Michael; Iida, Takato; Sato, Rintaro; Kakehi, Yasuaki and Hiyama, Atsushi
    We have developed an application which blurs the distinction between static and dynamic imagery in a stereoscopic omnidirectional browser. A ''cinemagraph'' is a living picture, interpolating between a still photo and a video. A stereo omnidirectional camera can capture stereographic contents. Combining such functionality yields a photospherical cinemagraph. Runtime control of activation fields allows selective alternation between frozen and animated scene elements. Narrowcasting, a user interface idiom for selective activation, is used to alternate between static and moving imagery) . Presentation includes stereoscopic display (binocular channels) and spatial sound.
