LenSelect: Object Selection in Virtual Environments by Dynamic Object Scaling
We present a novel selection technique for VR called LenSelect. The main idea is to decrease the Index of Difficulty (ID) according to Fitts’ Law by dynamically increasing the size of the potentially selectable objects.

We present Virtual Elastic Objects (VEOs): virtual objects that not only look like their real-world counterparts but also behave like them, even when subject to novel interactions. Achieving this presents multiple challenges: not only do objects have to be captured including the physical forces acting on them, then faithfully reconstructed and rendered,

Objects, components, and the virtual enterprise [PDF]
We are currently witnessing a convergence of several threads of technology and business imperatives. The idea of a virtual enterprise (VE) – a business built from both organizationally and geographically distributed units – is becoming an area of increasing interest to both computer scientists and business people.

Virtualizing real-world objects [PDF]
High quality, virtual 3D models are quickly emerging as a new multimedia data type with applications in such diverse areas as e-commerce, online encyclopedias, or virtual museums, to name just a few. We present new algorithms and techniques for the acquisition and real-time interaction with complex textured 3D objects and show how these results can be ...

Interactive multi-object tracking for virtual object manipulation [PDF]
We present an interactive system to manipulate a virtual object by tracking multiple hands in 3D space using a Kinect device. The system segments hand shapes from a captured 3D scene by using depth information and active contours.
