This paper presents an audio-based tennis simulation game for mobile devices, which uses motion input and non-verbal audio feedback as exclusive means of interaction. Players have to listen carefully to the provided auditory clues, like racquet hits and ball bounces, rhythmically synchronizing their movements in order to keep the ball into play. The device can be swung freely and act as a full-...

We present a thorough photometric and geometric study of the multimedia devices composed of both a matte screen and an attached camera, where it is shown that the light emitted by an image displayed on the monitor can be expressed in closed-form at any point facing the screen, and that the geometric calibration of the camera attached to the screen can be simplified by introducing simple geometr...

A visit to a public collection is potentially one of the most effective and entertaining ways of knowledge acquisition open to the general public. Such collections are nevertheless under increasing pressure, for various commercial and technical reasons, to improve the qualaity of experience (QoE) afforded to users. In this work, we propose to (try to) enhance QoE in a visit to a museum through ...
