Wearable Mixed Reality System In Less Than 1 Pound

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo, Achille Peternier

We have designed a wearable Mixed Reality (MR) framework which allows to real-time render game-like 3D scenes on see-through head-mounted displays (see through HMDs) and to localize the user position within aknown internet wireless area. Our equipment weig ...

Organic shape modeling through haptic devices

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo, Renaud Ott

This paper presents a sketching system for 3D organic shapes modeling and animation using virtual reality devices. On the hardware side, it is based on the Haptic Workstation™ which conveys force feedback on the user arms (upper body limbs), and a head mou ...

Robust Feature Point Extraction and Tracking for Augmented Reality

Touradj Ebrahimi

For augmented reality applications, accurate estimation of the camera pose is required. An existing video-based markerless tracking system, developed at the ITS, presents several weaknesses towards this goal. In order to improve the video tracker, several ...

A Virtual Keyboard Based on True-3D Optical Ranging

Edoardo Charbon, Huan Du, Félix Lustenberger

In this paper, a complete system is presented which mimics a QWERTY keyboard on an arbitrary surface. The system consists of a pattern projector and a true-3D range camera for detecting the typing events. We exploit depth information acquired with the 3D r ...
