Motion Synergies for Real-Time Postural Control in Virtual Environments

Daniel Raunhardt

Virtual prototyping has become an important part during the product development process. The common way to let a user interact with the virtual prototype is the use of a three dimensional virtual mannequin that is controlled by the user. These human figure ...

Virtual Human Control for Reaching Tasks

Damien Maupu

In the framework of virtual prototyping, a virtual human is a useful tool to evaluate what one can reach or see. However because engineers and industrial designers are not necessarily skilled animators, it is important to provide intuitive or high-level in ...

Culture, gaze and the neural processing of fear expressions

Nouchine Hadjikhani

The direction of others' eye gaze has important influences on how we perceive their emotional expressions. Here, we examined differences in neural activation to direct-versus averted-gaze fear faces as a function of culture of the participant (Japanese ver ...

Dynamics of Visual Feature Integration and Decision Making

Johannes Rüter

The human brain analyzes a visual object first by basic feature detectors. These features are integrated in subsequent stages of the visual hierarchy. Generally it is assumed that the information about these basic features is lost once the information is s ...

Deprecating the Observer Pattern

Martin Odersky, Tiark Rompf, Ingo Maier

Programming interactive systems by means of the observer pattern is hard and error-prone yet is still the implementation standard in many production environments. We present an approach to gradually deprecate observers in favor of reactive programming abst ...

Full-Body Avatar Control with Environment Awareness

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado, Daniel Raunhardt, Damien Maupu

Interactive control of virtual characters through full-body movement requires accurately reproducing a performer's motion while accounting for surrounding obstacles. The authors' approach, based on a prioritized inverse kinematics solver, satisfies marker ...

Psychophysical Evaluation of a Variable Friction Tactile Interface

Evren Samur

This study explores the haptic rendering capabilities of a variable friction tactile interface through psychophysical experiments. In order to obtain a deeper understanding of the sensory resolution associated with the Tactile Pattern Display (TPaD), frict ...

Interactive Mobile Robotic Drinking Glasses

Francesco Mondada, François Rey, Michele Leidi

The central idea behind this attempt is to merge common objects and robotics to obtain a new type of interactive artefact, we call robjects. Robjects provide services to everyday life and can be controlled by the user in a very intuitive way. Robjects take ...
