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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Anyone for tennis?

Daniel Thalmann, Amaury Aubel

The authors present a virtual tennis game. They describe the creation and modeling of the virtual humans and body deformations, also showing the real-time animation and rendering aspects of the avatars. They focus on the animation of the virtual tennis bal ...

Hybrid approaches to interactions between real and virtual humans in mixed environments

Daniel Thalmann

We analyse use of real-time video in virtual environments in interaction between real and virtual humans. We implemented our ideas in a networked collaborative virtual environment system, VLNET and in an augmented reality setup. This paper presents three d ...
