Water Dome - An Augmented Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the influence that a water dome has on a person. The following approach was used for this study: ( I ) A water display was used as a projection screen; ( 2 ) The illusion of being under water was created; and (3) Experiments with water domes of various sizes were carried out. Water display is a head mounted type water membrane. When the display is projected, the inside surface acts as a concave mirror that can reflect the hand and face of a participant. Water dome is a hemisphere eight meters in diameter. Participants were allowed to see the real world through a transparent wall of water on which computergenerated images were projected. A water dome has the advantage of engaging a participant's five senses as it enhances the surrounding environment. We developed a water dome that incorporates the points of view of both the artist and the engineer.

Image Based Shadowing in Real-Time Augmented Reality
This work presents an approach to render appropriate shadows with Image Based Lighting in Augmented Reality applications. To approximate the result of environment lighting and shadowing, the system uses a dome of shadow casting light sources. The color of each shadow is determined by the area of the environment behind the casting light source. As a result it is possible that changes in the ligh...
متن کاملThe Shared Imagination: Creative Collaboration in Augmented Virtuality
In creative collaboration, the primary focus of participants is creating “what if” scenarios that must be jointly imagined. Collaboration in strictly Physical Reality (PR) is constrained because of the limitations the real world places on shared imagination. As dynamic as Virtual Reality (VR) environments can be, subtle human-to-human interaction is severely limited in these totally synthetic e...
متن کاملEvaluating the geochemistry of Bam salt dome in Hormozgan Province, Iran
Evaluation of the geochemistry and hydrochemical quality of Bam salt dome located in southern Iran, was conducted in this study. Two composite samples from salt units were collected and analysed by XRD and XRF to determine their mineral and elemental compositions. Water samples were also collected from the only spring in the area and analysed for major anions, cations and some toxic elements. T...
متن کاملImmersive Mixed Media Augmented Reality Applications and Technology
In this paper I will outline an augmented reality system based on high resolution omni-directional motion image capture, an immersive interactive projection environment, the iDome and multi-layered narrative strategies and applications for educational and entertainment use. This system differs in two ways from other AR frameworks. It operates in non real-time, by employing 360o video recording ...

Due to the dryness of the weather in most parts of Iran and the lack of sufficient rainfall in more than six months of the year in most places, resulting in the seasonality of rivers and the lack of access to water, various arrangements for fresh water supply in the dry seasons has been established. The construction of the AB ANBAR (water reservoir and cistern) is one of innovative ways to supp...
