CHI ' 88 Grasping Reality
نویسنده
چکیده
I treat three related subjects: virtual-worlds research-the construction of real-time 3-D illusions by computer graphics; some observations about interfaces to virtual worlds; and the coming application of virtual-worlds techniques to the enhancement of scientific computing. We need to design generalized interfaces for visualizing, exploring, and steering scientific computations. Our interfaces must be direct-manipulation, not commandstring; interactive, not batch; 3-D, not 2-D; multisensory, not just visual. We need generalized research results for 3-D interactive interfaces. More is known than gets reported, because of a reluctance to share "unproven" results. I propose a shellsof-certainty model for such knowledge.

CLAW: A Multifunctional Handheld Haptic Controller for Grasping, Touching, and Triggering in Virtual Reality -0.6cm
CLAW is a handheld virtual reality controller that augments the typical controller functionality with force feedback and actuated movement to the index finger. Our controller enables three distinct interactions (grasping virtual object, touching virtual surfaces, and triggering) and changes its corresponding haptic rendering by sensing the differences in the user’s grasp. A servo motor coupled ...
متن کاملMulti-Contact Grasp Interaction for Virtual Environments
The grasping of virtual objects has been an active research field for several years. Solutions providing realistic grasping rely on special hardware or require time-consuming parameterizations. Therefore, we introduce a flexible grasping algorithm enabling grasping without computational complex physics. Objects can be grasped and manipulated with multiple fingers. In addition, multiple objects ...
متن کاملValidation of a Virtual Reality Environment to Study Anticipatory Modulation of Digit Forces and Position
The aim of this paper is to validate a virtual reality (VR) environment for the analysis of the sensorimotor processes underlying learning of object grasping and manipulation. This study was inspired by recent grasping studies indicating that subjects learn skilled manipulation by concurrently modulating digit placement and forces as a function of the position of object center of mass (CM) in a...
متن کاملVirtual Environment for Assembly Operations with Improved Grasp Interaction
An immersive virtual reality environment (IVE) for performing assembly and maintenance simulations has been developed using the Jack software package. The Flock of BirdsTM motion tracking system is used to capture body postures of an immersed human and reproduce it in real-time in the virtual environment. The CybergloveTM is used to capture finger movements in real-time for realistic grasp inte...
متن کاملGrasp Registration and Learning in Virtual Reality Environments
The objective of this paper is to present a grasping registration technique by using Virtual Reality technologies. In this context, an individual interacts with a virtual world by means of several devices which are integrated into a common architecture. A 6 DOF tracking system gives the position of the user in the scene and a VR glove provides the flexion angles of the fingers of a virtual hand...
