Distributed virtual collaborative environments with Multitouch support: Implementation and Experiences
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we present a new application framework aimed to support distributed synchronous collaboration using multi-touch interaction. The framework supports 2D and 3D virtual workspaces that enable two or more users to collaboratively or cooperatively manipulate shared objects with multi-touch interfaces. We present two applications developed with the aim to explore 2d/3d immersive collaborative environments with multi-touch interaction. We also present our experience and preliminary results in designing, developing and integrating these applications on educational settings.

متن کاملStorytelling in Collaborative Augmented Reality Environments
$%675$&7 We describe the several possibilities of using storytelling in an Augmented Reality Environment to support the collaborative experience of the users in those environments. We start with the motivation of a lack of storytelling and experience in Collaborative Virtual Environments. As an implication of the need for such experiences, we give a general definition of Interactive Storytellin...
