New Parametric 3D Snake for Medical Segmentation of Structures with Cylindrical Topology

Michaël Unser, Daniel Andreas Schmitter

We propose a new parametric 3D snake with cylindrical topology. Its construction is based on interpolatory basis functions which facilitates user-interaction because the control points of the snake directly lie on the surface of the deformable cylinder. We ...

Realtime Performance-Based Facial Avatars for Immersive Gameplay

Mark Pauly

This paper discusses how realtime face tracking and performance-based animation can facilitate new ways of interaction for computer gaming and other online applications. We identify a number of requirements for realtime face capture and animation systems, ...

Design and Evaluation of a Graphical iPad Application for Arranging Adaptive Furniture

Auke Ijspeert, Pierre Dillenbourg, Patrick Jermann, Julia Fink, Rico Möckel, Stéphane Bonardi, Jérémy Blatter

We present the design and evaluation of an iPad application that will be used to operate the modular robots “Roombots”. Roombots are the building blocks for adaptive pieces of furniture. The application allows a user to arrange adaptive furniture within a ...

Natural Activation for Gesture Recognition Systems

Daniel Thalmann, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo, Mathieu Hopmann

Gesture recognition is becoming a popular way of interaction, but still suffers of important drawbacks to be integrated in everyday life devices. One of these drawbacks is the activation of the recognition system – trigger gesture - which is generally tiri ...

On the use of brain decoded signals for online user adaptive gesture recognition systems

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Ricardo Andres Chavarriaga Lozano, Andrea Biasiucci, Daniel Roggen

Activity and context recognition in pervasive and wearable computing ought to continuously adapt to changes typical of open-ended scenarios, such as changing users, sensor characteristics, user expectations, or user motor patterns due to learning or aging. ...

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 ...

On scaling strategies for the full-body postural control of virtual mannequins

Daniel Thalmann, Ronan Boulic, Damien Maupu

Due to its intrinsic complexity. full-body postural input has been Mostly limited to off-line motion capture and to on-line Puppetry of a virtual character with little interaction with its environment (e.g. floor). The motion capture technology is now matu ...
