Dieser Tagungsband enthält die Beiträge zum 12. Workshop zum Thema Virtuelle und Erweiterte Realität der Fachgruppe VR/AR der Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. Der Workshop dient zum Informations- und Ideenaustausch deutschsprachigen WissenschaftlerInnen, zusätzlich bietet der Workshop den idealen Rahmen aktuelle Ergebnisse und Vorhaben aus Forschung und Entwicklung einem fachkundigen Publikum zur Diskussion zu stellen. Insbesondere wollen wir auch jungen Nachwuchswissenschaftlern die Möglichkeit geben, ihre Arbeiten zu präsentieren.
In this paper, a set of micro-benchmarks is proposed to determine basic performance parameters of single-node mainstream hardware architectures for High Performance Computing. Performance parameters of recent processors, including those of accelerators, are determined. The investigated systems are Intel server processor architectures as well as the two accelerator lines Intel Xeon Phi and Nvidia graphic processors. Results show similarities for some parameters between all architectures, but significant differences for others.
The study of locomotion in virtual environments is a diverse and rewarding research area. Yet, creating effective and intuitive locomotion techniques is challenging, especially when users cannot move around freely. While using handheld input devices for navigation may often be good enough, it does not match our natural experience of motion in the real world. Frequently, there are strong arguments for supporting body-centered self-motion cues as they may improve orientation and spatial judgments, and reduce motion sickness. Yet, how these cues can be introduced while the user is not moving around physically is not well understood. Actuated solutions such as motion platforms can be an option, but they are expensive and difficult to maintain. Alternatively, within this article we focus on the effect of upper-body tilt while users are seated, as previous work has indicated positive effects on self-motion perception. We report on two studies that investigated the effects of static and dynamic upper body leaning on perceived distances traveled and self-motion perception (vection). Static leaning (i.e., keeping a constant forward torso inclination) had a positive effect on self-motion, while dynamic torso leaning showed mixed results. We discuss these results and identify further steps necessary to design improved embodied locomotion control techniques that do not require actuated motion platforms.
