Robot localization is a key barrier to providing natural interaction between 3D virtual characters, human users and mobile robots. Knowing where the robot is, relative to a known world-frame, is essential to directed gestures, gazes and expressions between the robot and the other real and virtual participants in a telepresence system. The intrinsic noise of robots is a flexible and robust, yet under-examined,...
This paper presents an approach for the integration of Virtual Reality (VR) and Computer-Aided Design (CAD). Our general goal is to develop a VR–CAD framework making possible intuitive and direct 3D edition on CAD objects within Virtual Environments (VE). Such a framework can be applied to collaborative part design activities and to immersive project reviews. The cornerstone of our approach is a model...
Our goal is to investigate new interaction techniques, using the haptic modality for CAD applications. An important issue in CAD systems is the modification of the boundary representation (B-Rep) of 3D objects. However, this fundamental task is only possible if a geometric element (vertex, edge, face) has already been selected. This paper focuses on several haptic selection methods to solve specific...
