Tinmith-evo5 -- An Architecture for Supporting Mobile Augmented Reality Environments
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a summary of a new software architecture we have developed, known as Tinmith-evo5, which is designed as one possible methodology for writing complex AR applications. While software for 2D environments is very mature, in the 3D case there is still missing software support that we are attempting to address.

An Object-Oriented Software Architecture for 3D Mixed Reality Application
This paper presents a new software architecture for 3D mixed reality applications, named Tinmith-evo5. Currently there are a limited number of existing toolkits for the development of 3D mixed reality applications, each optimised for a particular feature but at the detriment of others. Complex interactive user interfaces and applications require extensive supporting infrastructure, and can be h...
متن کاملOutdoor virtual reality
This paper presents our novel concept Outdoor Virtual Reality. By using outdoor augmented reality techniques we propose to build very wide area virtual reality systems, outdoor virtual reality. The concept of outdoor virtual reality is compared and contrasted to traditional definitions of augmented reality and virtual reality. We present our flexible Tinmith-evo5 software architecture as a plat...
متن کاملThe Tinmith System - Demonstrating New Techniques for Mobile Augmented Reality Modelling
This paper presents user interface technology, using a glove based menuing system and 3D interaction techniques. It is designed to support applications that allow users to construct simple models of outdoor structures. The construction of models is performed using various 3D virtual reality interaction techniques, as well as using real time constructive solid geometry, to allow users to build u...
متن کاملTinmith-Mobile Outdoor Augmented Reality Modelling Demonstration
This paper outlines some of the capabilities of the TinmithMetro modelling system, based on mobile outdoor augmented reality technology. This system implements a new user interface based on tracked pinch gloves and a series of techniques named construction at a distance for the capture and creation of 3D geometry. The user controls the modelling process using hand and head motions, with modelli...
متن کاملTinmith-Hand: Unified User Interface Technology for Mobile Outdoor Augmented Reality and Indoor Virtual Reality
The Tinmith-Hand user interface uses: ! Tracking of the head and hands to provide 3D cursors (fig 2) ! Direct manipulation and image plane techniques for the manipulation of 3D objects close up or far away ! Custom pinch gloves (fig 2,3) that are used to control a new type of menuing system ! Each menu item is mapped to a unique finger on the gloves, and the user traverses the menu using only s...
