Augmenting existing virtual environments with plausible naturalistic clutter

2005 International Conference on Cyberworlds (CW'05), 2005
We present an approach for enriching a Virtual Environment by augmenting it with the kind of naturalistic clutter often found in real-world scenes. Rather than manually specifying clutter distribution, our semi-automatic procedural approach seeks to add plausible clutter with minimal user-interaction, and few constraints on the format in which the ...

RetroTracker: Upgrading Existing Virtual Reality Tracking Systems

2019 IEEE Conference on Virtual Reality and 3D User Interfaces (VR), 2019
Virtual reality systems often make use of spatially tracked handheld props in the form of controllers or specialized objects to add realism and interaction. Tracking these objects today relies on the use of expensive, bulky, and power-consuming trackers that must be attached to an object. We propose a passive tracking technique that works with existing

Virtual eXist-db

Proceedings of the VLDB Endowment, 2015
XQuery programs can be hard to write and port to new data collections because the path expressions in a query aredependenton the hierarchy of the data. We propose to demonstrate a system to liberate query writers from this dependence. Aplug-and-play querycontains a specification of what data the query needs in order to evaluate.

Tele-existence in real world and virtual world

Fifth International Conference on Advanced Robotics 'Robots in Unstructured Environments, 1991
Tele-existence is a concept named for the technology which enables a human being to have a real time sensation of being at the place other than the place where he or she actually is, and is able to interact with the remote and/or virtual environment. He or she can tele-exist in a real world where the robot exists or in a virtual world which a computer ...

Considerations in Adding Adaptive Training to Existing Virtual Environments

2020
Virtual environments (VEs) afford learners the ability to train in simulated versions of real-world environments or in novel environments to attain or refine skills. Performance within these training tasks are likely to benefit from appropriate feedback and assessments.

Existence and Uniqueness of Solutions to the Multispecies Virtual Population Analysis Equations

Mathematical Medicine and Biology, 1987
This paper deals with the question of existence and uniqueness of solutions to multispecies virtual population analysis equations for predator-prey systems. By formulating the question as a fixed-point problem for a certain function F, it is shown that at least one solution always exists.

I Don’t Exist: Aesthetics of Virtual Expropriation

Proceedings of the 10th Conference on Computation, Communication, Aesthetics & X, 2022
Existing in virtual global networks poses questions on how subjects can main- tain agency within them. The shift of digital networks into compartmentalized locked-in platforms facilitates the metamorphosis of subjects into the category of users. The ever-growing absence of a buffer zone between online and offline representation means that online ...

Legal facts with virtual existence

2022
The emergence of legal facts with virtual existence and form is related to the emergence of the new legal reality – virtual reality, which makes their existence possible. Legal facts with virtual existence can be legal facts that develop only in virtual reality /legal facts with virtual form and virtual existence/ and facts that have a material ...

Virtual Me: a virtual communication method that enables simultaneous multiple existence as an avatar and/or agents

2000 IEEE International Conference on Multimedia and Expo. ICME2000. Proceedings. Latest Advances in the Fast Changing World of Multimedia (Cat. No.00TH8532), 2002
The paper proposes a new communication method, called "Virtual Me", that enables a user to simultaneously participate in multiple events such as meetings or lectures as a virtual-metamorphosed avatar controlled by the user and/or as a computer-controlled autonomous agents.

GhostGlove

ACM SIGGRAPH 2008 posters, 2008
In the real world, we usually do not perceive haptic sensations consciously. However, if the haptic sensations are absent or if they are not of the desired quality, it would result in discomfort, and the existence of the world would be degraded. In order to eliminate the feelings of discomfort and represent genuine feelings of the existence of objects ...
