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 ...
Exploring Pupil Dilation in Emotional Virtual Reality Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Previous investigations have shown that pupil dilation can be affected by emotive pictures, audio clips, and videos. In this paper, we explore how emotive Virtual Reality (VR) content can also cause pupil dilation. VR has ...
Viewpoint-Dependent Appearance-Manipulation with Multiple Projector-Camera Systems
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
This paper proposes a novel projection display technique that realizes viewing-direction-dependent appearance-manipulation. The proposed method employs a multiple projector-camera feedback system, and each projector-camera ...
Enjoyment, Immersion, and Attentional Focus in a Virtual Reality Exergame with Differing Visual Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Virtual reality exergames provide a compelling distraction from the possible discomfort and negative perception of exercise by immersing users in three dimensional virtual worlds. Prior studies have looked at the effects ...
Tour de Tune - Auditory-game-motor Synchronisation in Exergames
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Exergaming has been heralded as a promising approach to increase physical activity in hard-to-reach populations such as sedentary young adults. By combining physical activity with entertainment, researchers and developers ...
Fast and Accurate Simulation of Gravitational Field of Irregular-shaped Bodies using Polydisperse Sphere Packings
(The Eurographics Association, 2017)
Currently, interest in space missions to small bodies (e.g., asteroids) is increasing, both scientifically and commercially. One of the important aspects of these missions is to test the navigation, guidance, and control ...
A Novel Approach for Cooperative Motion Capture (COMOCAP)
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Conventional motion capture (MOCAP) systems, e.g., optical systems, typically perform well for one person, but less so for multiple people in close proximity. Measurement quality can decline with distance, and even drop ...
BuzzwireVR: An Immersive Game to Supplement Fine-Motor Movement Therapy
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Recovery of upper-body fine-motor skills after brain trauma, e.g. after a stroke, involves a long process of movement rehabilitation. When the arms and hands are affected patients often spend many hours exercising in order ...
Blowing in the Wind: Increasing Copresence with a Virtual Human via Airflow Influence in Augmented Reality
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
In a social context where two or more interlocutors interact with each other in the same space, one's sense of copresence with the others is an important factor for the quality of communication and engagement in the ...
