Object manipulation and grasping for virtual humans

Tolga Abaci

Virtual environments need virtual humans that are capable of interacting with objects around them. Existing virtual environments have not found satisfactory general solutions for this problem. The common method is to combine pre-designed (or motion capture ...

Mixing virtual and real scenes in the site of ancient Pompeii

Daniel Thalmann, Sébastien Schertenleib

This paper presents an innovative 3D reconstruction of ancient fresco paintings through the real-time revival of their fauna and flora, featuring groups of virtual animated characters with artificial-life dramaturgical behaviours in an immersive, fully mob ...

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 ...

A motivational model of action selection for virtual humans

Daniel Thalmann, Etienne De Sevin

Nowadays virtual humans such as non-player characters in computer games need to have a real autonomy in order to live their own life in persistent virtual worlds. When designing autonomous virtual humans, the action selection problem needs to be considered ...

Collaboration with agents in VR environments

Jan Ciger

Virtual reality is gaining on importance in many fields – scientific simulation, training, therapy and also more and more in entertainment. All these applications require the human user to interact with virtual worlds inhabited by intelligent characters an ...

The complexity of testing a motivational model of action selection for virtual humans

Daniel Thalmann, Etienne De Sevin

After implementing a motivational model of action selection applied to autonomous virtual humans inspired by models of animals' decision-making, the problem consists of testing it in good conditions for validation. Indeed this model has to respect the six ...

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 ...

Stable Real-Time Interaction Between Virtual Humans and Real Scenes

Daniel Thalmann, Pascal Fua, Vincent Lepetit, Michal Ponder

We present an augmented reality system that relies on purely passive techniques to solve the real-time registration problem. It can run on a portable PC and does not require engineering of the environment, for example by adding markers. To achieve this res ...

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 ...

Augmented reality for real and virtual humans

Daniel Thalmann, Pascal Fua, Michal Ponder

Current virtual reality technologies provide many ways to interact with virtual humans. Most of those techniques, however, are limited to synthetic elements and require cumbersome sensors. We have combined a real-time simulation and rendering platform with ...
