    • Handheld Pixels 

      Nordlund, Petri (The Eurographics Association, 2006)
      During this decade, pixels have become mobile. Cell phones, PDAs, handheld gaming consoles and other similar devices start to have color displays by standard and color displays are hungry for high-quality graphics. QVGA ...

    • Handrix: Animating the Human Hand 

      Koura, George El; Singh, Karan (The Eurographics Association, 2003)
      The human hand is a complex organ capable of both gross grasp and fine motor skills. Despite many successful high-level skeletal control techniques, animating realistic hand motion remains tedious and challenging. This ...

    • Hands On: Interactive Animation of Precision Manipulation and Contact 

      Humberston, Ben; Pai, Dinesh K. (ACM Siggraph, 2015)
      Humans show effortless dexterity while manipulating objects using their own hands. However, specifying the motion of a virtual character's hand or of a robotic manipulator remains a difficult task that requires animation ...

    • Haptic Display for a Virtual Reality Simulator for Flexible Endoscopy 

      Körner, Olaf; Männer, Reinhard (The Eurographics Association, 2002)

      Visualising in real-time high quality virtual environments, which are suitable for cultural heritage and virtual tourism, is often a challenging endeavour. This is primarily, due to the cost of rendering complex architectural ...

    • A Haptic Rendering Algorithm for Molecular Interaction 

      Stocks, Matthew B.; Laycock, Stephen D. (The Eurographics Association, 2008)
      Haptic rendering is the process of calculating and displaying physical forces to a user. Used concomitantly with a virtual environment it can further enhance a user's immersive experience whilst they interact with computer ...

    • Haptic Rendering of Complex Force Fields 

      Krenek, Ales (The Eurographics Association, 2003)
      With a particular focus in scientific applications, we propose a method of haptic rendering of virtual environments which require rather complex calculations to evaluate their behaviour. Therefore it is not possible to ...

    • Haptic Rendering of Dynamic Image Sequence Using String based Haptic Device SPIDAR 

      Jayasiri, Anusha; Akahane, Katsuhito; Sato, Makoto (The Eurographics Association, 2012)
      This paper concerns how to associate haptic signals with a dynamic image sequence or in other words a video to feel the haptic motion. Nowadays, there is a significant evolvement in haptic technologies and they are being ...

    • Haptic Rendering Techniques for the Interactive Exploration of CFD Datasets in Virtual Environments 

      Reimersdahl, T. van; Bley, F.; Kuhlen, T.; Bischof, C.H. (The Eurographics Association, 2003)
      In pure CFD visualization tools, some flow features are hard to visualize such as the properties of a local flow probe. Haptic rendering techniques offer an intuitive understanding and allow more detailed insights than the ...

    • Haptics-based Modelling of Pigmented Skin Lesions 

      Granados, Alejandro; Bryan, James; Abdalla, Taha; Osborne, Genevieve; Bello, Fernando (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      Dermatology is under-represented in medical undergraduate education with newly graduated doctors not being able to identify common and important skin conditions. In order to become competent in diagnosing skin lesions, it ...

    • A Haptics-enabled Simulator for Transperineal Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy 

      Ritsos, Panagiotis D.; Edwards, Marc R.; Shergill, Iqbal S.; John, Nigel W. (The Eurographics Association, 2015)
      We present the development of a transperineal prostate biopsy, with high fidelity haptic feedback. We describe our current prototype, which is using physical props and a Geomagic Touch. In addition, we discuss a method for ...

    • Hardware Accelerated Visibility Preprocessing using Adaptive Sampling 

      Nirenstein, S.; Blake, E. (The Eurographics Association, 2004)
      We present a novel aggressive visibility preprocessing technique for general 3D scenes. Our technique exploits commodity graphics hardware and is faster than most conservative solutions, while simultaneously not overestimating ...
