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 ...
Materiality Manipulation by Light-Field Projection from Reflectance Analysis
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
In this paper, we report a method for changing the appearance of an object to different colors as a function of viewing perspective with multiple projectors and cameras. If such appearance manipulation becomes possible, ...
Effects of Embodiment on Generic and Content-Specific Intelligent Virtual Agents as Exhibition Guides
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Intelligent Virtual Agents (IVAs) received enormous attention in recent years due to significant improvements in voice communication technologies and the convergence of different research fields such as Machine Learning, ...
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 ...
Safe Walking Zones: Visual Guidance for Redirected Walking in Confined Real-World Spaces
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Walking is usually considered the most natural form of self-motion in a virtual environment (VE). However, the confined physical workspace of typical virtual reality (VR) labs often prevents natural exploration of larger ...
Invisible Long Arm Illusion: Illusory Body Ownership by Synchronous Movement of Hands and Feet
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
We feel as if a fake body is our own body by synchronicity between the fake body and the actual body (illusory body ownership) even if the body has a different shape. In our previous study, we showed that illusory body ...
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 ...
A Scoping Review Exploring the Feasibility of Virtual Reality Technology Use with Individuals Living with Dementia
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
The existing evidence base in relation to the feasibility of using Virtual Reality technology systems with individuals living with a dementia appeared limited and was therefore explored. The research was collected and ...
Scalable Autostereoscopic Display with Temporal Division Method
(The Eurographics Association, 2018)
Science-fiction has frequently depicted people directly interacting with life-size autostereoscopic images projected from the walls of buildings in public places. In this paper, we present a large modularized autostereoscopic ...
