We demonstrate an interaction technique that allows a user to point at a world-in-miniature representation of a city-scale virtual environment and perform efficient and precise teleportation by pre-orienting an avatar. A preview of the post-teleport view of the full-scale virtual environment updates interactively as the user adjusts the position, yaw, and pitch of the avatar's head with a pair of...
Game engines have become popular development platforms for real-time interactive systems. Contemporary game engines, such as Unity and Unreal, feature component-based architectures, in which an object's appearance and behavior is determined by a collection of component scripts added to that object. This design pattern allows common functionality to be contained within component scripts and shared...
Assembly or repair tasks often require objects to be held in specific orientations to view or fit together. Research has addressed the use of AR to assist in these tasks, delivered as registered overlaid graphics on stereoscopic head-worn displays. In contrast, we are interested in using monoscopic head-worn displays, such as Google Glass. To accommodate their small monoscopic field of view, off center...
There has been considerable interest in producing grasping platforms using non-invasive, low bandwidth brain computer interfaces(BCIs). Most of this work focuses on low level control of simple hands. Using complex hands improves the versatility of a grasping platform at the cost of increasing its complexity. In order to control more complex hands with these low bandwidth signals, we need to use higher...
