A Mixed Reality Space for Tangible User Interaction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent developments in the field of semi-immersive display technologies provide new possibilities for engaging users in interactive three-dimensional virtual environments (VEs). For instance, combining low-cost tracking systems (such as the Microsoft Kinect) and multi-touch interfaces enables inexpensive and easily maintainable interactive setups. The goal of this work is to bring together virtual as well as real objects on a stereoscopic multitouch enabled tabletop surface. Therefore, we present a prototypical implementation of such a mixed reality (MR) space for tangible interaction by extending the smARTbox [FLBS12]. The smARTbox is a responsive touch-enabled stereoscopic out-of-the-box system that is able to track users and objects above as well as on the surface. We describe the prototypical hardand software setup which extends this setup to a MR space, and highlight design challenges for the several application examples.

Tangible Interaction in Mixed Reality Systems
In this chapter, we discuss the design of tangible interaction techniques for Mixed Reality environments. We begin by recalling some conceptual models of tangible interaction. Then, we propose an engineering-oriented software/hardware co-design process, based on our experience in developing tangible user interfaces. We present three different tangible user interfaces for real-world applications...

This paper presents an interactive theatre based on an embodied mixed reality space and wearable computers. Embodied computing mixed reality spaces integrate ubiquitous computing, tangible interaction and social computing within a mixed reality space, which enables intuitive interaction with physical world and virtual world. We believe it has potential advantages to support novel interactive th...
متن کاملTangible Interaction in Mixed Reality Applications
Tangible user interfaces promise to support a more collaborative and comprehensible way of interaction by making digital data tangible and using physical objects as controls of digital information. Mixed reality deals with the combination of both real and virtual elements within a same visual display in order to produce a more elaborate environment. This thesis analyzes the main interaction tas...
متن کاملA Mixed Reality System with Visual and Tangible Interaction Capability - Application to Evaluating Automobile Interior Design
This paper presents a mixed reality (MR) system with tangible interface as well as visual fusion in an MR space. The sense of touch is given by physical objects on which computer generated imagery is accurately registered and superimposed. The proposed approach is especially useful in industrial design where digital mockups and physical mockups are thoroughly utilized.
