    • Contribution to Ownership and Agency When Controlling a Mobile Robot 

      Hua, Junjie; Furukawa, Masahiro; Maeda, Taro (The Eurographics Association, 2018)
      Out-of-body experience shows that body ownership can be built through illusory visual-tactile correlation when man observes avatar from its back.On the other hand, ownership and agency are usually thought to be negative ...
    • Controlling the Distribution of Salty Taste Intensity on the Tongue Using Extraoral Galvanic Taste Stimulation 

      Tanaka, So; Narumi, Takuji; Amemiya, Tomohiro; Kuzuoka, Hideaki; Aoyama, Kazuma (The Eurographics Association, 2023)
      Galvanic taste stimulation (GTS) alters taste intensity by applying a weak electric current around the oral cavity. Previous studies on GTS have captured the overall trend of taste changes in the oral cavity produced by ...
    • Coordinate System Transformations for Imitation of Goal-Directed Trajectories in Virtual Humans 

      Amor, Heni Ben; Weber, Matthias; Heumer, Guido; Jung, Bernhard (The Eurographics Association, 2007)
      The goal of this work is to record human hand trajectories during goal-oriented reaching behaviors in immersive VR for later imitation by a virtual human. It is desirable that the used trajectory representation generalizes ...
