The Benefits of Third-Person Perspective in Virtual and Augmented Reality?

Daniel Thalmann, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo

Instead of the reality in which you can see your own limbs, in virtual reality simulations it is sometimes disturbing not to be able to see your own body. It seems to create an issue in the proprioperception of the user who does not completely feel integra ...

Comfortable manipulation of a virtual gearshift prototype with haptic feedback

Daniel Thalmann, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo

Improving quality, design and comfort is very important for high technology companies in order to stay competitive against the other enterprises. A present problem is that the new physical dedicated prototypes they need to create for the tests are very exp ...

Crowds for interactive virtual environments

Branislav Ulicny

Crowds are part of our everyday experience; nevertheless, in virtual worlds they are still relatively rare. In this thesis we explore the challenges of bringing crowds into interactive virtual environments and the possible applications of real-time interac ...

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 ...

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 ...

Autonomous virtual agents learning a cognitive model and evolving

Daniel Thalmann, Toni Conde

In this paper, we propose a new integration approach to simulate an autonomous virtual agent's cognitive learning of a task for interactive virtual environment applications. Our research focuses on the behavioural animation of virtual humans capable of act ...

Conducting a virtual orchestra

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo, Sébastien Schertenleib

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 ...

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 ...

Towards interactive real-time crowd behavior simulation

Daniel Thalmann, Branislav Ulicny

While virtual crowds are becoming common in non-real-time applications, the real-time domain is still relatively unexplored. In this paper we discuss the challenges involved in creating such simulations, especially the need to efficiently manage variety. W ...

Towards real time virtual human life simulations

Daniel Thalmann, Etienne De Sevin

We describe an approach to construct interactive virtual environments, which are suitable for the development of artificial virtual human life simulations. Our main goal is to have virtual human actors living and working autonomously in virtual environment ...
