The OpenUIX framework aims to provide end-users –and developers– with a level playing field where they can not only access 3D user interfaces adapted to their context (location, time of day, hardware platform, disabilities, etc.), but also create and share them with others. To achieve this goal, the framework has a built-in toolset that allows the collaborative edition of the different components...
In this extended poster, we present a model that aims to provide developers with an extensive and extensible set of context-aware interaction techniques, greatly facilitating the creation of meaningful AR-based user experiences. To provide a complete view of the model, we detail the different aspects that form its theoretical foundations, while also discussing several considerations for its correct...
The recent outbreak of indie games has popularized volumetric terrains to a new level, although video games have used them for decades. These terrains contain geological data, such as materials or cave systems. To improve the exploration experience and due to the large amount of data needed to construct volumetric terrains, industry uses procedural methods to generate them. However, they use their...
Procedural terrain generators are widely used in computer games, simulators and other virtual environments. Traditionally, these methods have been focused on generating realistic landscapes and their elements, like mountains or rivers. In contrast, there is a movement in the industry which employs virtual worlds using volumetric terrains. This movement uses its owns methods to generate terrains, but...
Iron casting production is a very important industry that supplies critical products to other key sectors of the economy. For this reason, these castings are subject to very strict safety controls to ensure their final quality. One of the most common flaws is the appearance of defects on the surface. In particular, our work focuses on three of the most typical defects in iron foundries: inclusions,...
As social networks and always-connected mobile devices grow in popularity, the control over personal information weakens. This is especially true for teenagers between 15 and 18 years old, one of the population groups that shares more information online, but also the most unaware of the risks associated with this activity. For this reason, many institutions have developed programs to educate the students...
Foundry is an important industry that supplies key castings to other industries where they are critical. Hence, foundry castings are subject to very strict safety controls to assure the quality of the manufactured castings. One of the type of flaws that may appear in the castings are defects on the surface; in particular, our work focuses in inclusions, cold laps and misruns. We propose a new approach...
High-precision foundry production is subjected to rigorous quality controls in order to ensure a proper result. Such exams, however, are extremely expensive and only achieve good results in a posteriori fashion. In previous works, we presented a defect prediction system that achieved a 99% success rate. Still, this approach did not take into account sufficiently the geometry of the casting part models,...
