In this paper, we propose a system that can carve virtual objects in Mixed Reality (MR) space. The procedures of real-world carving include sculpting a rough outline, shaping sections, and carving patterns onto an object's surface. Of these, we focus on ...

This paper speculates and explores how emotional awareness and communication can be enhanced with the mediation of spatial experience. Based on two exploratory user studies, we designed and prototyped a conceptual system that mediates the spatial ...

Augmented Reality (AR) provides real-time information by super-imposing virtual information onto users' view of the real world. Our work is the first to explore how peripheral vision, instead of central vision, can be used to read text on AR and smart ...

We present LabDesignAR, an augmented reality application to support the planning, setup, and reconfiguration of marker-based motion capture systems with multiple cameras. LabDesignAR runs on the Microsoft HoloLens and allows the user to place an ...

We present a mixed reality application (HoloFEM) for the Microsoft HoloLens. The application lets a user define and solve a physical problem governed by Poisson's equation with the surrounding real world geometry as input data. Holograms are used to ...

Augmented and Mixed Reality technologies bring often definitions understanding issues for novice users. In this paper, we introduce our work in progress, Immercity, regarding the development of a content curation application which manage the idea of ...

In this paper, we present an Augmented Reality (AR) system for video see-through Head Mounted Displays (HMD) which implements natural physical interaction between augmented virtual balls (which represent real balls) and real world objects. We measure ...

Current virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) devices rely on handheld devices, hand gestures, head tracking, and voice input. This paper presents an initial exploration of using eye expressions as hands-free input modality for head-mounted AR/...

We present an augmented reality (AR) audio application where scattering delay networks efficiently generate and organize a reverberator, based on room geometry scanned by an AR device. The application allows for real-time processing and updating of ...

The recent progress made in the field of Augmented Reality/Mixed Reality (AR/MR) has opened new possibilities and approaches to research areas that can benefit from 3D visualization of digital content in the real world. In fact, human-robot interaction ...

A multi-user experience extending a standard TV content with AR elements is presented. It runs with both a standard tablet and a premium MR headset, the Microsoft HoloLens. A virtual TV mosaic is displayed around the TV screen and used as a GUI to ...

Virtual Reality allows rapid prototyping and simulation of physical artefacts, which would be difficult and expensive to perform otherwise. On the other hand, when the design process is complex and involves multiple stakeholders, decisions are taken in ...

We present JackIn Airsoft, a system for generating maps for multi-player sport activities and sharing their first-person views (FPVs). In first-person shooting (FPS) games, maps are generated for the visualization of the player's location; these maps ...

Aligning virtual and real objects in Augmented Reality (AR) is essential for the user experience. Without alignment, the user loses suspension of disbelief and the sense of depth, distance, and size. Occlusion is a key feature to be aligned. Virtual ...

Augmented reality (AR) enables the illusion of computer-generated virtual objects and humans co-existing with us in the real world. Virtual humans (VHs) in AR can further induce an illusion of physicality in the real world due to their form of ...

In this work we describe a system composed by an optical see-through AR headset---a Microsoft HoloLens---, stereo projectors and shutter glasses. Projectors are used to add to the device the capability of occluding real-world surfaces to make the ...

Cardiography, quantitative measurement of the functioning of the heart, traditionally requires customized obtrusive contact sensors. Using new methods photoplethysmography and ballistocardiography signals can be captured using ubiquitous sensors, such ...

We hope that you will find this program as exciting and interesting as we do, and firmly believe that ACM VRST 2017 will spotlight the latest research in the exciting field of virtual reality.
