Interaction Techniques with Virtual Humans in Mixed Environments
نویسندگان
چکیده
Homogenous Virtual Environments evolved into Mixed Environments thanks to recent Augmented Reality techniques. We have done research on novel interaction techniques in virtual environments exploiting the usage of 3D virtual space. We will briefly present our Augmented Reality set-up for mixed reality experiments and we will analyze two distinct mixed environment case studies, and present two new interaction techniques where we use virtual humans as mediators between the real and virtual world.

Hybrid Approaches to Interactions between Real and Virtual Humans in Mixed Environments
In this paper we analyse use of real-time video in Virtual Environments in interaction between real and virtual humans. We implemented our ideas in a Networked Collaborative Virtual Environment system, VLNET and in an Augmented Reality set-up. This paper presents three distinct case studies. The first one is a transatlantic demonstration, where distant users interact with virtual humans through...
متن کاملMixed Reality
Mixed reality (MR) is the merging of real and virtual worlds to produce new environments and visualizations where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real time. Mixed reality takes place not only in the physical world or the virtual world, but is a mix of reality and virtual reality, encompassing both augmented reality and augmented virtuality. Mixed reality is also known as h...
متن کاملImproving results of urban design research by enhancing advanced semiexperiments in virtual environments
There is abundant literature regarding virtual reality as a technology of interest in the present age. However, there are few comprehensive studies on strategies that can improve the level of urban design research using this technique. To investigate the issue, this paper first reviews the concept of virtual reality. Next, the opinions of experts in the field of virtual reality technology are s...
متن کاملPreface: Facial and Bodily Expressions for Control and Adaptation of Games
In future Ambient Intelligence (AmI) environments, we assume intelligence embedded in the environment, in its devices (furniture, mobile robots) and in its virtual humanlike interaction possibilities. These environments support the human inhabitants and visitors of these environments in their activities and interactions by perceiving them through their sensors (e.g. cameras, microphones). Suppo...
متن کاملBelievability and Presence in Mobile Mixed Reality Environments
Mixed Realities (MR) and their concept of cyber-real space interplay invoke such interactive ’touching’ experiences that promote new patterns of believability and presence. Believability is a term used to measure the realism of interaction in the MR environments. Presence is defined as the measure that is used to convey the feeling of ‘being there’. A rich media storytelling case study is used ...
