GL-Wrapper for Stereoscopic Rendering of Standard Applications for a PC-based Immersive Environment
(2007)
In this paper we present an ongoing research work dedicated to a Virtual-Reality-based product customization application development. The work is addressing the problem of flexible and quick customization of products from a great number of parts. Our application is an effective instrument that can be simultaneously used by two users for rapid assembly tasks, allowing engineers and designers to work collaboratively. Furthermore, it is directly connected to a manufacturing environment, which is able to produce the product right after customization. In the paper we describe the architecture of the application, our interaction and assembly techniques, and explain how the system can be integrated into a manufacturing environment.
Video Surveillance is in the center of research due to high importance of safety and security issues. Usually, humans have to monitor an area and often they have to do this for 24 hours a day. Thus, it would be desirable to have automatic surveillance systems that support this job automatically. The system described in this paper is such an automatic surveillance system that has been developed to detect several dangerous situations in a subway station. This paper discusses the high-level module of the system. Herein, an expert system is used to detect events.
A Low-Cost Based 6 DoF Head Tracker for Usability Application Studies in Virtual Environments
(2008)
The objective of the FIVIS project is to develop a bicycle simulator which is able to simulate real life bicycle ride situations as a virtual scenario within an immersive environment. A sample test bicycle is mounted on a motion platform to enable a close to reality simulation of turns and balance situations. The visual field of the bike rider is enveloped within a multi-screen visualisation environment which provides visual data relative to the motion and activity of the test bicycle. That means the bike rider has to pedal and steer the bicycle as a usual bicycle, while the motion is recorded and processed to control the simulation. Furthermore, the platform is fed with real forces and accelerations that have been logged by a mobile data acquisition system during real bicycle test drives. Thus, using a feedback system makes the movements of the platform match to the virtual environment and the reaction of the driver (e.g. steering angle, step rate).
Der Mutterpass wurde als wichtiges Vorsorgeinstrument für Schwangere Anfang der sechziger Jahre in Papierform eingeführt. Er wird bei 90% aller Schwangerschaften genutzt. Seit seiner Einführung im Jahre 1968 hat jedoch die Komplexität der Vorsorgeuntersuchungen zugenommen, wie auch die Begleitumstände einer Schwangerschaft häufig komplexer geworden sind. Dies war Anlass dafür, die elektronische Abbildung des Papier basierten Mutterpasses zu entwickeln, um den gewachsenen Anforderungen der medizinischen Dokumentation und Evaluation gerecht zu werden. Eine große Herausforderung bei der Konzeption und Entwicklung des elektronischen Mutterpasses war dabei die Definition eines strukturierten und maschinenlesbaren Austauschformates. Darüber hinaus mussten weltweit neue eindeutige Identifier entwickelt werden, um den Mutterpass elektronisch abzubilden. Nach der prototypischen Realisierung einer vollständigen Version wurde im Frühjahr 2008 die Pilotierung in der Metropolregion Rhein-Neckar begonnen.
"Visual Computing" (VC) fasst als hochgradig aktuelles Forschungsgebiet verschiedene Bereiche der Informatik zusammen, denen gemeinsam ist, dass sie sich mit der Erzeugung und Auswertung visueller Signale befassen. Im Fachbereich Informatik der FH Bonn-Rhein-Sieg nimmt dieser Aspekt eine zentrale Rolle in Lehre und Forschung innerhalb des Studienschwerpunktes Medieninformatik ein. Drei wesentliche Bereiche des VC werden besonders in diversen Lehreinheiten und verschiedenen Projekten vermittelt: Computergrafik, Bildverarbeitung und Hypermedia-Anwendungen. Die Aktivitäten in diesen drei Bereichen fließen zusammen im Kontext immersiver virtueller Visualisierungsumgebungen.
3D tracking using multiple Nintendo Wii Remotes: a simple consumer hardware tracking approach
(2009)
An easy to build and cost-effective 3D tracking solution is presented, using Nintendo Wii Remotes acting as cameras. As the hardware differs from usual tracking cameras, the calibration and tracking process has to be adapted accordingly. The tracking approach described could be used for tracking the user's motions in video games based upon physical activity (sports, fighting or dancing games), allowing the player to interact with the game in a more intuitive way than by just pressing buttons.
How Does Self-Perception Influence the Choice of Study? E-Portfolio and Gender Issues in Informatics
(2009)
The perceptual upright results from the multisensory integration of the directions indicated by vision and gravity as well as a prior assumption that upright is towards the head. The direction of gravity is signalled by multiple cues, the predominant of which are the otoliths of the vestibular system and somatosensory information from contact with the support surface. Here, we used neutral buoyancy to remove somatosensory information while retaining vestibular cues, thus "splitting the gravity vector" leaving only the vestibular component. In this way, neutral buoyancy can be used as a microgravity analogue. We assessed spatial orientation using the oriented character recognition test (OChaRT, which yields the perceptual upright, PU) under both neutrally buoyant and terrestrial conditions. The effect of visual cues to upright (the visual effect) was reduced under neutral buoyancy compared to on land but the influence of gravity was unaffected. We found no significant change in the relative weighting of vision, gravity, or body cues, in contrast to results found both in long-duration microgravity and during head-down bed rest. These results indicate a relatively minor role for somatosensation in determining the perceptual upright in the presence of vestibular cues. Short-duration neutral buoyancy is a weak analogue for microgravity exposure in terms of its perceptual consequences compared to long-duration head-down bed rest.
The perceived distance of self motion induced in a stationary observer by optic flow is overestimated (Redlick et al., Vis Res. 2001 41: 213). Here we assessed how different components of translational optic flow contribute to perceived distance traveled. Subjects sat on a stationary bicycle in front of a virtual reality display that extended beyond 90deg on each side. They monocularly viewed a target presented in a virtual hallway wallpapered with stripes that changed colour to prevent tracking individual stripes. Subjects then looked centrally or 30, 60 or 90° eccentrically while their view was restricted to an ellipse with faded edges (25 x 42deg) centered on their fixation. Subjects judged when they had reached the target’s remembered position. Perceptual gain (perceived/actual distance traveled) was highest when subjects were looking in a direction that depended on the simulated speed of motion. Results were modeled as the sum of separate mechanisms sensitive to radial and laminar optic flow. In our display distances were perceived as compressed. However, there was no correlation between perceptual compression and perceived speed of motion. These results suggest that visually induced self motion in virtual displays can be subject to large but predictable error.
The relative contributions of radial and laminar optic flow to the perception of linear self-motion
(2012)
When illusory self-motion is induced in a stationary observer by optic flow, the perceived distance traveled is generally overestimated relative to the distance of a remembered target (Redlick, Harris, & Jenkin, 2001): subjects feel they have gone further than the simulated distance and indicate that they have arrived at a target's previously seen location too early. In this article we assess how the radial and laminar components of translational optic flow contribute to the perceived distance traveled. Subjects monocularly viewed a target presented in a virtual hallway wallpapered with stripes that periodically changed color to prevent tracking. The target was then extinguished and the visible area of the hallway shrunk to an oval region 40° (h) × 24° (v). Subjects either continued to look centrally or shifted their gaze eccentrically, thus varying the relative amounts of radial and laminar flow visible. They were then presented with visual motion compatible with moving down the hallway toward the target and pressed a button when they perceived that they had reached the target's remembered position. Data were modeled by the output of a leaky spatial integrator (Lappe, Jenkin, & Harris, 2007). The sensory gain varied systematically with viewing eccentricity while the leak constant was independent of viewing eccentricity. Results were modeled as the linear sum of separate mechanisms sensitive to radial and laminar optic flow. Results are compatible with independent channels for processing the radial and laminar flow components of optic flow that add linearly to produce large but predictable errors in perceived distance traveled.
