Does the Control Law Matter? Characterization and Evaluation of Control Laws for Virtual Steering Navigation
(The Eurographics Association, 2020)
This paper aims to investigate the influence of the control law in virtual steering techniques, and in particular the speed update, on users' behaviour while navigating in virtual environments. To this end, we first propose ...
Soft Finger-tip Sensing Probe Based on Haptic Primary Colors
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
This paper describes a novel tactile sensing probe based on haptic primary colors (HPCs) and a tactile classifying system. We developed a finger-type soft tactile probe incorporating a sensor to measure three physical ...
Individualized Calibration of Rotation Gain Thresholds for Redirected Walking
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Redirected walking allows the exploration of large virtual environments within a limited physical space. To achieve this, redirected walking algorithms must maximize the rotation gains applied while remaining imperceptible ...
The West Digital Conservatory of Archaeological Heritage project
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)
The West Digital Conservatory of Archaeological Heritage project, a.k.a. WDCAH, is a new French research organization whose aim is to both ensure the preservation of digital archaeological data, and deliver expertise in ...
Evaluating and Comparing Game-controller based Virtual Locomotion Techniques
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
The incremental hardware costs of virtual locomotion are minimized when the technique uses interaction capabilities available in controllers and devices that are already part of the VE system, e.g., gamepads, keyboards, ...
Visualising Dudsbury Hillfort: Using Immersive Virtual Reality to Engage the Public with Cultural Heritage
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Whilst computer visualisation is an established method of presenting cultural heritage, the use of game engines to provide a full immersive virtual reality experience is less well developed. This research documents the ...
User-Centered Design of Immersive Research Applications for Understanding Written Artefacts
(The Eurographics Association, 2021)
Writing is an essential cultural technique that shaped our world's societies and is an important cultural heritage. The Cluster of Excellence 'Understanding Written Artefacts' is an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural ...
HTC Vive Pro Time Performance Benchmark for Scientific Research
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Widespread availability of consumer-level virtual reality (VR) devices creates a venue for their massive use in psychology and neuroscience research. The application of VR to scientific research however poses significant ...
VR-assisted Architectural Design in a Heritage Site: the Sagrada Família Case Study
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Virtual Reality (VR) simulations have long been proposed to allow users to explore both yet-to-built buildings in architectural design, and ancient, remote or disappeared buildings in cultural heritage. In this paper we ...
Studying Levels of Presence in a Virtual Environment Simulating Drug Use in Schools: Effect on Different Character Perspectives
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
This paper studies the aspect of presence in a Virtual Reality (VR) environment that can be used for training purposes in the education sector and more specifically for teacher training and professional development. During ...
