Proposition of a Modular I2C-Based Wearable Architecture

Daniel Thalmann, Xavier Righetti

In this paper we propose a novel wearable architecture based on the popular and proven I2C protocol. Our goal is to develop a modular approach towards wearable computing in a sense that users simply attach specific modules to their garments depending on th ...

Correlative joint definition for motion analysis and animation

Daniel Thalmann, Anders Sandholm

In this paper we address the problem of creating accurate joint models from real motions while allowing scalability. We propose an automatic method to model, scale, and simulate non-idealized joints from the external motion of markers. We demonstrate the m ...

Providing the best Third-Person Perspective to a Video-Through HMD

Daniel Thalmann, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo

This paper describes a system with several fixed cameras that provide Third-Person Perspective (3PP) to the video-through HMD of the user. Once done, our system uses an algorithm to make intelligent switches between the different cameras in order to provid ...

Sentiment analysis of informal textual communication in cyberspace

Daniel Thalmann, Stéphane Gobron

The ability to correctly identify the existence and polarity of emotion in informal, textual communication is a very important part of a realistic and immersive 3D environment where people communicate with one another through avatars or with an automated s ...

Virtual Shelf: Sharing Music Between People and Devices

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo, Mathieu Hopmann

Digital media are more and more present in our lives, but we are still waiting for interfaces and devices completely adapted to this content. In this paper, we present the virtual shelf, an application dedicated to interact with our digital music collectio ...

A subject-specific software solution for the modeling and the visualization of muscles deformations

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Anders Sandholm, Xavier Maurice

Today, to create and to simulate a virtual anatomical version of a subject is useful in the decision process of surgical treatments. The muscular activity is one of the factors which can contribute to abnormal movements such as in spasticity or static cont ...

Crowd Patches: Populating Large-Scale Virtual Environments for Real-Time Applications

Daniel Thalmann, Jonathan Maim, Barbara Yersin

Populating virtual environments (VEs) with large crowds is a subject that has been tackled for several years. Solutions have been proposed to offer realistic trajectories as well as interactivity, but limitations remain on the environment dimensions with r ...
