Plausible reality for real-time immersion in the virtual arena
نویسنده
چکیده
Over the last three years there has been increased interest in photo-realistic modelling and rendering techniques and a surge in popularity of imagebased rendering. These techniques aim to accurately model reality in order to generate virtual imagery that is indistinguishable from it. In this paper we introduce the concept of plausible reality. The aim of plausible reality is also to generate virtual imagery that is indistinguishable from reality, but without necessarily duplicating it. The key benefit of plausible reality over duplicating reality is that it can be done in real-time with simple computer vision techniques. We demonstrate a plausible reality system running realtime on an off-the-shelf PC.

A commonly encountered argument for using sound in games is that sound increases the sense of immersion of a game. Immersion refers to an experience of being drawn into the game world, a process is centrally dependent on the players’ simultaneous removal from everyday life also called disassociation. The immersive power of sound has been linked to its capacity to disassociate: to transport the ...
متن کاملThe Bunny Dilemma: Stepping between Agents and Avatars
As the Internet has become a global medium for communication, virtual environments are consolidating as the arena where users can interact with each others in a synchronous, threedimensional way. However, the poor behaviour usually shown by the avatars that inhabit these worlds, makes it difficult to achieve an acceptable level of immersion of their users in

In this paper an interactive 3D virtual amusement land supporting user’s interactivity with various virtual contents is presented for increasing reality and immersion of a virtual park. Most existing 2D amusement contents provide less interactivity and reality than the proposed one does. This method enables users to navigate virtual space actively and to experience virtual contents on real-time...

REVERIE is a general-purpose tele-immersion system that enables individuals to interact in a shared 3D synthesized environment. It is a meeting place for virtual characters representing real participants and receptive virtual agents (autonomous humanoids). Participants observe this virtual reality from the dynamically changing point of view of their virtual embodiment (an avatar or a replicant)...
