Haptic instrumentation for an interventional radiology simulator

Dejan Ilic

Low trauma, reduced costs and fast recovery are only a few factors why minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is taking over classical surgical methods. Interventional Radiology (IR) is a minimally invasive procedure where thin tubular instruments are steered th ...

Playback Delay and Buffering Optimization in Scalable Video Broadcasting

Pascal Frossard, Jean-Paul Wagner

This paper addresses the problem of optimizing the playback delay experienced by a population of heterogeneous clients, in video streaming applications. We consider a typical broadcast scenario, where clients subscribe to different portions of a scalable v ...

Packetized Media Streaming with Comprehensive Exploitation of Feedback Information

Pascal Frossard, Christophe De Vleeschouwer

This paper addresses the problem of streaming packetized media over a lossy packet network, with sender-driven (re)transmission using acknowledgement feedback. The different transmission scenarios associated to a group of interdependent media data units ar ...

Real-Time Interaction over the Internet: Model for QOS Adaptation

Denis Gillet, Christophe Salzmann, Philippe Müllhaupt

Real-time Interaction over the Internet (RTI2) is an Internet service that is required typically by remote experimentation applications. From a quality of service (QoS) point of view, RTI2 has constraints that differ from usual real-time multimedia service ...

Knot-tying with Visual and Force Feedback for VR Laparoscopic Training

Hannes Bleuler, Etienne Burdet, Fei Wang

Real-time simulation of thread and knot-tying with visual and force feedback is an essential part of virtual reality laparoscopic training. This paper presents a physics-based thread simulator that enables realistic knot tying at haptic rendering rate. The ...

An acoustic multiple target tracker

Volkan Cevher

We propose a particle filter acoustic tracker to track multiple maneuvering targets using a state space formulation with a locally linear motion model. The observations are a batch of direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimates at various frequencies. The data li ...

Dynamic thread for real-time knot-tying

Etienne Burdet, Fei Wang, Ankur Dhanik

Real-time simulation of knot-tying with visual and force feedback is essential to VR surgery training. We present a physics-based simulator that enables realistic knot tying at haptic speed. The virtual thread obeys Newton's laws and behaves naturally. The ...

Optimal FEC Rate for Media Streaming in Active Networks

Pascal Frossard, Dan Jurca

This paper addresses the problem of optimal channel rate allocation for media streaming in active networks, where intermediate nodes are able to perform basic FEC decoding/encoding operations. FEC performance is analyzed in the case of hop-by-hop FEC prote ...

The mobile animator: interactive character animation in collaborative virtual environments

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo

We have designed a mobile -PDA-based- interface for real-time control of virtual characters in multiuser semi-immersive virtual environments - using a large rear-projection screen. The proof-of-concept implementation we present shows the potential of handh ...

Distortion-Buffer Optimized TCP Video Streaming

Pascal Frossard

This paper presents a distortion optimized streaming algorithm for on-demand streaming of multimedia. Given the pre-encoded packets of a multimedia stream, we propose an algorithm for selecting an appropriate subset of these packets such that the overall c ...
