Integrating Real-time Binaural Acoustics into VR Applications
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
Common research in the field of Virtual Reality (VR) considers acoustic stimulation as a highly important necessity for enhanced immersion into virtual scenes. However, most common VR toolkits do only marginally support ...
Medical Augmented Reality based on Commercial Image Guided Surgery
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
Utilizing augmented reality for applications in medicine has been a topic of intense research for several years. A number of challenging tasks need to be addressed when designing a medical AR system. These include the ...
Optical Tracking using Line Pencil Fiducials
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
In this paper, a new pattern based optical tracking method is presented for the recognition and pose estimation of input devices for virtual or augmented reality environments. The method is based on pencils of linefiducials, ...
Interfaces for Cloning in Immersive Virtual Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
Three-dimensional objects in many applications domains, such as architecture and construction, can be extremely complex and can consist of a large number of components. However, many of these complex objects also contain ...
The DigiTracker, a Three Degrees of Freedom Pointing Device
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
For a variety of reasons, only a few computer devices allow to achieve pointing, tracking and selecting tasks in a precise, fast and intuitive way in 3D workspaces. This article presents the ergonomic and technical principles ...
Digital Mock-up database simplification with the help of view and application dependent criteria for industrial Virtual Reality application
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
Aircraft cockpits are advanced interfaces dedicated to the interaction and exchange of observations and commands between the pilot and the flying system. The design process of cockpits is benefiting from the use of Virtual ...
Live Tuning of Virtual Environments: The VR-Tuner
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
This paper describes a solution for the modification of virtual environment (VE) applications while being immersed in the application scenario inside of an immersive projection environment. We propose an infrastructure ...
Image-based Techniques for the Creation and Display of Photorealistic Interactive Virtual Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
In this paper we introduce an image-based 3D capture process for the creation and display of photorealistic virtual environments (VEs). The resulting VEs aim to realistically recreate existing real-world scenes that can ...
Multi-Finger Haptic Rendering of Deformable Objects
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
The present paper describes the integration of a multi-finger haptic device with deformable objects in an interactive environment. Repulsive forces are synthesized and rendered independently for each finger of a user wearing ...
Authoring of Mixed Reality Applications including Multi-Marker Calibration for Mobile Devices
(The Eurographics Association, 2004)
Creative and innovative people have good ideas for new kinds of Mixed Reality applications. Applications designed by artists for example enrich the exhibitions of modern museums. Developing such an MR application is a ...
