Collision Detection and Tissue Modeling in a VR-Simulator for Eye Surgery
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
This paper gives a survey of techniques for tissue interaction and discusses their application in the context of the intra-ocular training system EyeSi. As key interaction techniques collision detection and soft tissue ...
Scope-Based Interaction - A Technique for Interaction in an Image-Based Virtual Environment
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
Multimedia Ambiance Communication is a means to achieve shared-space communication in an immersive environment constructed of photo-realistic natural images where users can feel they are part of the environment. An image-based ...
Collaborative stretcher carrying: a case study
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
This paper describes a simulation of a collaborative task in a shared virtual environment - two users carrying a shared object (a stretcher) in a complex chemical plant. The implementation includes a haptic interface for ...
Technical System for Collaborative Work
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
Virtual reality makes it possible to realize distributed collaborative teamwork. In this case objects can be represented three-dimensionally in different visualization installations which are connected with each other over ...
Realizing a New Step-in-place Locomotion interface for Virtual Environment with Large Display System
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
Omni-directional locomotion systems are yet of little advantage in virtual environments (VEs) with limited large display system, where users may experience visual-less situations when they move in a direction that is not ...
Collaboration in Tele-Immersive Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
This paper describes a study of remote collaboration between people in a shared virtual environment. Seventeen subjects were recruited at University College London, who worked with a confederate at University of North ...
AR-Planning Tool - Designing Flexible Manufacturing Systems with Augmented Reality
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
The technology of augmented reality (AR), as a new user interface, introduces a completely new perspective for the design of technical manufacturing systems. This technique supports a face to face collaboration where users ...
Interaction Techniques for Navigation through and Manipulation of 2D and 3D Data
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
In this article we present a working prototype incorporating some new interaction techniques for the navigation through and the manipulation of both 3D and 2D data. The prototype aims at professional applications like ...
Virtual Spring Manipulators for Particle Steering in Molecular Dynamics on the ResponsiveWorkbench
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
In this paper we present new virtual spring manipulator-based tools for steering particles in molecular dynamics simulations in virtual environments. We briefly overview the MolDRIVE system, our visualization and computational ...
Redirected Walking in Place
(The Eurographics Association, 2002)
This paper describes a method for allowing people to virtually move around a CAVE without ever having to turn to face the missing back wall. We describe the method, and report a pilot study of 28 participants, half of ...
