Virtual Objects in Mixed-Reality Environment

by Somsak Walairacht, Keita Yamada, Shoichi Hasegawa, Yasuharu Koike, Makoto Sato
"... This paper describes the construction of a prototype system that allows the user to manipulate virtual objects in a mixed-reality environment. The user can perceive haptic sensations at his or her fingertips and see a virtual world with a live image of his or her hands manipulating the virtual objec ..."

Understanding and Constructing Shared Spaces with Mixed Reality Boundaries Steve

by Steve Benford, Chris Greenhalgh, Gail Reynard, Chris Brown, Boriana Koleva , 1998
"... We propose an approach to creating shared mixed realities based on the construction of transparent boundaries between real and virtual spaces. First, we introduce a taxonomy that classifies current approaches to shared spaces according to the three dimensions of transportation, artificiality and spa ..."

Virtual Reflections and Virtual Shadows in Mixed Reality Environments

by Frank Steinicke, Klaus Hinrichs, Timo Ropinski
"... Abstract. In this paper we propose the concepts of virtual reflections, lights and shadows to enhance immersion in mixed reality (MR) environments, which focus on merging the real and the virtual world seamlessly. To improve immersion, we augment the virtual objects with real world information regar ..."

Vision and Graphics in Producing Mixed Reality Worlds

by Hideyuki Tamura And, Hideyuki Tamura, Hiroyuki Yamamoto - In IEEE and ATR Workshop on Computer Vision for Virtual Reality Based Human Communications , 1998
"... This paper introduces prominent topics of our Mixed Reality (MR) project and states what kind of role computer vision and graphics play in the project. MR is a part of VR in broader sense, but it treats the physical space as well as the virtual space created in computers. Here we use the term " ..."

Perceptual Issues in Augmented Reality

by David Drascic, Paul Milgram - SPIE Volume 2653: Stereoscopic Displays and Virtual Reality Systems III , 1996
"... Between the extremes of real life and Virtual Reality lies the spectrum of Mixed Reality, in which views of the real world are combined in some proportion with views of a virtual environment. Combining direct view, stereoscopic video, and stereoscopic graphics, Augmented Reality describes that class ..."

Interacting with virtual agents in mixed reality interactive storytelling

by Marc Cavazza, Olivier Martin, Fred Charles, Steven J. Mead, Xavier Marichal - In Proc. of Intelligent Virtual Agents, Kloster Irsee , 2003
"... User interaction with virtual agents generally takes place in virtual environments in which there is clear separation between the virtual actors and the user, due to the fact that in most cases, the user is in some way external to the virtual world. In Mixed-Reality Interactive Storytelling, the use ..."
