A Mirror Metaphor Interaction System: Touching Remote Real Objects in an Augmented Reality Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a real-world-oriented interface called the “Mirror Metaphor Interaction System”. The display shows a mirror image from a camera facing a user, and the user can “touch” objects without making direct contact with the display. The “touched” object displays a menu or works directly. Objects can be placed in a remote room as well as in the user’s room, and can also be moved around in a room. The user can therefore control equipment or interact with objects anywhere through the display of the system by combining images from local and remote places translucently. Our demonstration shows how the interface makes it easy to establish contact with movable objects in a remote room by “touching” them in the display.

Augmented Reality Collaborative Environment : Calibration and Interactive Scene Editing
This paper presents a innovative environment for collaborative applications in augmented reality. This environment is based on a table-top metaphor where each user, sitting around a table, is head and hand tracked. See-through head mounted devices are used to display virtual objects, as if they were lying on the table, together with real objects. This approach requires accurate calibration and ...
متن کاملAugmented Reality with Back-Projection Systems using Transflective Surfaces
In this paper, we describe the use of a hand-held semi-transparent mirror to support augmented reality tasks with back-projection systems. This setup overcomes the problem of occlusion of virtual objects by real ones linked with such display systems. The presented approach allows an intuitive and effective application of immersive or semi-immersive virtual reality tasks and interaction techniqu...
متن کاملThe Studierstube Augmented Reality Project
Our starting point for developing the Studierstube system was the belief that augmented reality, the less obtrusive cousin of virtual reality, has a better chance of becoming a viable user interface for applications requiring manipulation of complex three-dimensional information as a daily routine. In essence, we are searching for a 3-D user interface metaphor as powerful as the desktop metapho...
متن کاملVisualization Based on Geographic Information in Augmented Reality
This chapter is a study on the visualization techniques of geographic information in an augmented reality environment, focusing on its user interface. Augmented reality is a technology that superimposes information over a real scene, enhancing the real world with the scene-linked information. The information is overlaid onto the real scene, dynamically based on the user’s viewpoint. When mixed ...
متن کاملIllumination Reconstruction from Real-time Video for Interactive Augmented Reality
This paper presents an interactive real-time augmented reality system with realistic illumination of integrated virtual objects. A marker and a mirror sphere are placed in a scene that is captured by a video camera. Dynamic illumination (as the marker is interactively moved) is estimated from the video signal and used for realistic real-time integration of virtual objects into the video. To ach...
