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 ... -
Immersive Augmented Reality Display System Using a Large Semi-transparent Mirror
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)This paper proposes an immersive augmented reality display system, named "AR View", that generates a high presence augmented reality environment using the immersive projection technology. In this system, the stereoscopic ... -
An Immersive CAD Testbed
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Today Virtual Environments in industry are predominantly used for passive analysis of product or production data, mostly exported from CAD systems. To investigate on potentials of future immersive CAD-modeling and feasible ... -
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 ... -
Interactive Social Displays
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)The mediation of social presence is one of the most interesting challenges of modern communication technology. The proposed metaphor of Interactive Social Displays describes new ways of interactions with multi-/crossmodal ... -
Learning from Painting: Perspective-dependent Geometry Deformation for Perceptual Realism
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Virtual environments and user interfaces in general can be improved by using the concept of Perceptual Realism, e.g. by means of non-photorealistic rendering techniques. The approach presented here follows a different path ... -
A Lightweight ID-Based Extension for Marker Tracking Systems
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)The estimation of the position and orientation of the digital video camera is a central challenge in video seethrough augmented reality. Many augmented reality applications solve this problem with the help of markerbased ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Real-time Reconstruction of PseudoWide-angle Images with an Approximating Depth Model
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Recently, interactive contents with high quality images are widely used in various areas. One of the ways that makes the contents more realistic is displaying them as covering viewer's field-of-view. However, the view-angle ... -
Rendering on Tiled Displays using Advanced Stream Caching
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)To render complex scenes on tiled displays efficiently modifications to the Chromium framework have been proposed that lead to significant lower processor and memory load on the client and a very effective utilization of ... -
Requirements for Industrial Augmented Reality Tracking Systems - an Evaluation
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Industrial environments often have special requirements for AR systems and features are prioritized different than in scientific applications. The Volkswagen group (VW) wants to apply an AR-guided stud welding system for ... -
A Single Chip DLP Projector for Stereoscopic Images of High Color Quality and Resolution
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We present a novel stereoscopic projection system. It combines all the advantages of modern single-chip DLP technology attractive price, great brightness, high contrast, superior resolution and color quality with those ... -
STORM: a Generic Interaction and Behavioral Model for 3D Objects and Humanoids in a Virtual Environment
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)We present in this paper research focused on interaction and behavior specification for 3D objects in general, including humanoids. This research is conducted in the context of a collaboration with Nexter-Group (a French ... -
A Unified Multi-Surface, Multi-ResolutionWorkspace with Camera-Based Scanning and Projector-Based Illumination
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)Research in the area of projector- and camera-augmented office environments has demonstrated the use of cameras as desktop scanning devices, shown the benefits of using multiple display devices for focus and context ... -
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 ... -
vrLib: A Designer Oriented Interaction and 3D User Interface Library
(The Eurographics Association, 2007)In this paper we propose vrLib, a toolkit which aims to make 3D graphical user interface and interaction very easy to design in virtual environments. This project provides well known and new interaction techniques and ready ...
