Vibrotactile Jacket For Perception Enhancement

Daniel Thalmann, Sylvain Cardin

By nature, human beings perceive their environment mostly using sight and audition. Vibrotactile feedback has proven satisfying results in the domains of simple multimodal interaction, for immersion and navigation purposes. The scope of this research is to ...

Virtual Reality Based Simulation of Hysteroscopic Interventions

Gábor Székely

Virtual reality based simulation is an appealing option to supplement traditional clinical education. However, the formal integration of training simulators into the medical curriculum is still lacking. Especially, the lack of a reasonable level of realism ...

Instrumentation of a Clinical Colonoscope for Surgical Simulation

Hannes Bleuler, Evren Samur, Lionel Flaction, Pascal Maillard

This paper describes the instrumentation of a clinical colonoscope needed for a novel colonoscopy simulation framework. The simulator consists of a compact and portable haptic interface and a virtual reality environment to provide real-time visualization. ...

A modular simulation framework for colonoscopy using a new haptic device

Hannes Bleuler, Evren Samur

We have developed a multi-threaded framework for colonoscopy simulation utilising OpenGL with an interface to a real-time prototype colonoscopy haptic device. A modular framework has enabled us to support multiple haptic devices and efficiently integrate n ...

Generic and Systematic Evaluation of Haptic Interfaces Based on Testbeds

Hannes Bleuler, Fei Wang, Evren Samur

The purpose of evaluation procedures is to achieve both qualitative and quantitative statements on haptic rendering realism and performance. Since a haptic interface provides an interaction between a user and a virtual environment, fidelity of a haptic int ...

Head Mounted Wind

Daniel Thalmann, Frédéric Vexo, Sylvain Cardin

Within the context of tele-presence and immersion for piloting light aircraft, knowledge about the surrounding wind offers useful information for piloting purposes. Rendering wind in virtual simulation or tele-presence application has been used still the e ...

Crowds of Moving Objects: Navigation Planning and Simulation

Daniel Thalmann, Helena Stephanie Grillon Le Gallennec

This paper presents a solution to interactive navigation planning and real-time simulation of a very large number of entities moving in a virtual environment. From the environment geometry analysis, we deduce a structure called navigation graph, which is t ...

Real-time navigating crowds: Scalable simulation and rendering

Daniel Thalmann, Jonathan Maim, Barbara Yersin

This paper introduces a framework for real-time simulation and rendering of crowds navigating in a virtual environment. The solution first consists in a specific environment preprocessing technique giving rise to navigation graphs, which are then used by t ...

Multiresolution particle-based fluids

Mark Pauly

We propose a new fluid control technique that uses scale-dependent force control to preserve small-scale fluid detail. Control particles define local force fields and can be generated automatically from either a physical simulation or a sequence of target ...

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 ...
