Tangible Interfaces for Interactive Multimedia Presentations

Tangible interfaces for interactive flow simulation

In this Paper we will present a set of modules and plugins developed for the COVISE visualization system which allow setting up interactive CFD simulations. Real objects can be moved in a model and thus provide an easy to use interface to modify the geometry of the simulation.

Authoring Support for Durable Interactive Multimedia Presentations

There are two major problems with the current ways of creating interactive multimedia presentations. Firstly, authoring a multimedia presentation is a non-trivial task, requiring a range of skills such as creating individual items in each medium as well as combining these into a coherent presentation. Secondly, after having devoted a large amount of time and effort to the creation of a presenta...

Consistency checking for interactive multimedia presentations

Multimedia presentations are generally specified in terms of spatial and temporal relations between the media objects involved. Creation of these presentations, and interactions with them during their play-out, require an effective mechanism for handling the specifications dynamically. Further, these specifications could result in inconsistencies, which need to be checked and resolved. Our main...

Biosensorfusion: New Interfaces for Interactive Multimedia Art

This paper is intended as an investigation of some new interfaces for computer music and interactive multimedia art. We have been producing many sensors, interfaces and interactive systems for computer music, composing many works and presenting some performances as applications of our research. Now in this study the main stress falls on "soft connections" with human performers, not using mechan...
