Meta-VR: A Dynamic Approach to Building Interactive 3D Web Applications
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper describes a novel approach to building interactive 3D web applications. In this approach, called Meta-VR, an application consists of a number of interconnected visualization models. Each virtual scene sent to a user is dynamically generated based on one of the available visualization models and the current set of data. Before generating a virtual scene, the system automatically determines which visualization model should be used. The selection of the visualization model is performed by a metamodel and is based on a number of criteria such as characteristics of the dataset, position in a virtual world, target presentation platforms, and user preferences. Two 3D web applications, based the Meta-VR approach, are also described in this paper.

A description of a dialog to enable interaction between interaction tools and 3D objects in collaborative virtual environments
Building virtual reality applications is still a difficult and time consuming task. Software developers need a common set of 3D widgets, hardware device abstraction and a set of software components that are easy to write and use. These means are intended to provide collaborative interactions in rich virtual applications, easy use of many input devices, and easy deployment on multi-sites for sha...
متن کاملMulti-Layered Random Forest-based Metaphoric Hand Gesture Interface in VR
We present a novel Natural User Interface (NUI) framework, called Meta-Gesture1, for supporting intricate interactive scenarios in Virtual Reality. Meta-Gesture uses the gestures of holding and manipulating everyday tools commonly used in daily life. Specifically, the holding gesture is used to summon a virtual object into the palm of the hand, while the manipulating gesture is used to trigger ...

The primary objective of this research is to realize an adaptable online architectural virtual reality (VR) model whose color attributes can be changed dynamically according to the identified emotional state of the user. We believe that the current approach to developing electronic based design environments is fundamentally defective with regard to support for multi-person multi-modal design in...

متن کاملStructured Design of Interactive Virtual and Augmented Reality Content
1. INTRODUCTION Our paper presents work on user centred prototyping and evaluation of virtual and augmented reality (AR) applications. Most existing VR/ AR research and development has focused on pure technology development and highly specialised applications in the professional domain. We focus on the specific and distinct requirements of end-user applications. It is apparent that end-user VR ...
