Comfortable manipulation of a virtual gearshift prototype with haptic feedback

Daniel Thalmann, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo

Improving quality, design and comfort is very important for high technology companies in order to stay competitive against the other enterprises. A present problem is that the new physical dedicated prototypes they need to create for the tests are very exp ...

Crowds for interactive virtual environments

Branislav Ulicny

Crowds are part of our everyday experience; nevertheless, in virtual worlds they are still relatively rare. In this thesis we explore the challenges of bringing crowds into interactive virtual environments and the possible applications of real-time interac ...

Semantics-based representation of virtual environments

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo

In this paper we present an object representation based on the semantics and functionality of interactive digital items - virtual objects - within a virtual environment (VE). We consider every object participating in a VE application not only as a 3D shape ...

DO PARTNERS CARE ABOUT THEIR MUTUAL LOCATION? Spatial awareness in virtual environments.

Pierre Dillenbourg, Nicolas Nova

This paper reports on four experimental studies concerning regard to how people use space so as to solve problems collaboratively in virtual environments. Prior to presenting the results, it summarizes the wide range of literature concerning social uses of ...

Acquiring, structuring shapes and annotating them with semantics to improve design activities

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo

Shapes incorporate geometry as well as semantics and can be defined in 2D, 3D or higher dimensions. Geometric models can be structured in such a way that they can provide a relevant framework to insert semantic information or view dependent information abo ...

Semantic virtual environments

The main problem targeted by this research is the lack of flexibility of virtual objects within a Virtual Environment. Virtual objects are difficult to re-use in applications or contexts different from the ones they were designed for. This refers mainly to ...

Speculative planning with delegation

Daniel Thalmann, Tolga Abaci, Jan Ciger

This paper presents a novel method of collaborative problem solving for intelligent agents in virtual environments. We describe a planner for STRIPS-like domains enhanced by techniques of "delegated computing". Instead of having one central planner with co ...

Multisensory learning cues using analytical collision detection between a needle and a tube

Etienne Burdet, Fei Wang

We are developing a Virtual Reality based training system for micromanipulation in collaboration with the National University Hospital in Singapore. While conventional approaches judge a virtual environment by its resemblance to the real environment, we us ...

Virtual humans for virtual reality and augmented reality

Daniel Thalmann

The tutorial will explain the techniques for integrating virtual humans into virtual and real environments. It will first present the concept of avatars and autonomous virtual actors and the main techniques to create and animate them (body and face). It wi ...

Bringing the human arm reachable space to a virtual environment for its analysis

Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado

Human reaching in a 3D environment is an interesting matter of research due to its application to workplace or vehicle-interior design. We introduce a 3D environment where a virtual human performs reaching tasks over 3D objects in the world. This environme ...
