This chapter introduces the field of Mixed Reality that merges the real and virtual worlds seamlessly. To develop a Mixed Reality system, two fundamental problems should be addressed: tracking and user interface. Tracking in Mixed Reality is defined as the ...
Ultrasound imaging allows the evaluation of the degree of emergency of a patient. However, in several occasions a well trained sonographer is unavailable to perform such echography. To cope with this issue, the OTELO project aims to develop a fully integra ...

We present the results of an evaluation study in the framework of user interfaces for teleoperation of vehicles. We developed a virtual cockpit with haptic feedback provided by a Haptic Workstation™. Four alternative teleoperation interfaces were implement ...
In robotics we depend on software tools during design, modeling, programming and testing. These tools are essentials, often indispensable aids for developing and operating sophisticated robotic systems. At the same time, these tools are complex and usually ...
Research on virtual humans spans from body animation to speech generation. In many cases research systems are isolated software pieces and can only be used after a steep learning curve. A novel system is presented which integrates a large repertoire of vir ...
The virtual orchestra is a multimodal system architecture based on complex 3D sound environment processing and a compact user interface. The system architecture supports high-performance sound content for VR (virtual reality) applications, and the user con ...
We propose a model of a tennis game simulation with synthetic actors as players and a referee. The behaviour of these actors is based on their synthetic vision and audition. Physical modeling of the ball dynamic and sound rendering enhance realism. An inte ...
This paper presents an evaluation of the benefits and user acceptance of a multimodal interface in which the user interacts with a game-like interactive virtual reality application "The Enigma of the Sphinx". The interface consists of a large projection sc ...
