Volume Rendering in a Virtual Environment
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
This paper describes a flexible rendering system for scalar volume data which has been integrated into the visualization system COVISE. It allows direct volume rendering based on texture mapping hardware on both the desktop ...
Design review and visualization steering using the INQUISITIVE interaction toolkit
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
This paper describes the architecture of an interaction toolkit for creating virtual environments. The toolkit contains interaction techniques, interaction objects such as menus, spanner and a runtime manager to interface ...
Presence a global media quality metric
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
In this paper presence (a sense of being there in a mediated environment) is proposed as a global quality metric with which to evaluate advanced multi-modal media systems. The development of a new presence selfreport ...
On the Utility of Semantic Constraints
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
Content creation for computer graphics applications is a laborious process that requires skilled personnel. One fundamental problem is that manipulation of 3D objects with 2D user interfaces is very difficult for nonexperienced ...
Towards a Scalable High Performance Application Platform for Immersive Virtual Environments
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
Software for the development and generation of virtual environments used to run on specialized and expensive hardware. This situation has dramatically changed in the last two years. This paper describes a scalable high ...
Novel Shutter Glass Control for Simultaneous Projection and Picture Acquisition
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
Virtual reality offers completely new possibilities for collaborative work over distributed environments. To enable collaborative work, it is necessary that both, virtual objects as well as the other users, can be seen ...
Control Software for the productive Use of distributed IPT Installations
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
Over the last few years the number of industrial immersive projection technology (IPT) installations has grown rapidly. Most of these systems are powered by one or more SGI Onyx graphics computers with several independent ...
Adaptive Networking for Tele-Immersion
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
Tele-Immersive applications possess an unusually broad range of networking requirements. As high-speed and Quality of Service-enabled networks emerge, it will becoming more difficult for developers of Tele-Immersion ...
The integration of immersive Virtual Reality applications into Catia V5
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
During the last few years a wide range of stand-alone virtual reality (VR) applications have been developed. The typical data source for most of these applications are 3D styling tools or 3D-CAD systems from which data has ...
COVISE and the Virtual Intuitive Simulation Test bed
(The Eurographics Association, 2001)
This paper describes the developments performed in the EU-project VISiT (Virtual Intuitive Simulation Test bed). The goal of the project is the development of an intuitive simulation test bed based on Virtual Reality ...
