Skin‐Integrated Vibrohaptic Interfaces for Virtual and Augmented Reality (Adv. Funct. Mater. 39/2021)

Unifying Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality User Interfaces

This paper presents a unified user interface technology, using 3D interaction techniques, constructive solid geometry, and a glove based menuing system, known as Tinmith-Hand, to support mobile outdoor augmented reality applications and indoor virtual reality applications. Tinmith-Hand uses similar concepts for both domains so that AR and VR applications are consistent to use. The future goal o...

Application of Augmented and Virtual Reality Technologies in Medicine

Background and Aim: Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are immersive technologies that integrate virtual and real-world elements. These technologies have been used to help and improve human capabilities in many fields. Virtual and augmented systems are used in various medical situations. They are effective options in most stages of patient treatment and performing medical procedures. Therefo...

Remote Collaboration With Augmented and Virtual Reality Interfaces

Some applications require a person in a remote location (the trainer), to instruct another person (the trainee) on how to put together a number of objects according to a precise set of spatial relationships. In this paper we report the results of using a collaborative Mixed Reality application that allows the trainer to manipulate the virtual objects in a virtual environment. At the same time, ...

Virtual Humans for Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality

The tutorial will explain the techniques for integrating virtual humans into virtual and real environments. It will first present the concept of avatars and autonomous virtual actors and the main techniques to create and animate them (body and face). It will present the concepts of behavioral animation, crowd simulation, intercommunication between virtual humans, and interaction between real hu...
