Background: The I-Space is a radiological imaging system in which Computed Tomography (CT)-scans can be evaluated as a three dimensional hologram. The aim of this study is to analyze the value of virtual reality (I-Space) in diagnosing acute occult scaphoid fractures.   Methods: A convenient cohort of 24 patients with a CT-scan from prior studies, without a scaphoid fracture on radiograph, ye...

• Virtueller Raum → EncycloSpace means that the (evidently electronic) virtual space has to be provided with an encyclopedic character. • im → @ means that musicology needs a profiled allocation at such an encyclopedic virtual space. • Musik → Music means that the Anglo-Saxon computational musicology environment [2] is already charged with the building of a scenario for such an allocation of mu...

Notion of space has been always an important issue in art. Scenes that artists represent in the images they create are often metaphorical spaces, each of them inviting viewers to another time/space even after many years of production. Recent developments in virtual reality technologies and the Internet technologies have made possible for artists to literally deal with another space. Both real s...

A collaborative educational system has been designed that enables several students in distant locations to share a virtual three-dimensional space. It can be used to perform virtual experiments and carry out creative tasks. Students can dynamically create a new object and modify its properties. The system maintains a consistent status of the virtual space as seen by each student present in a ro...

In this paper, we propose a gesture user interface for controlling a virtual camera in the 3D virtual space, which can be used to navigate the 3D virtual space by users. In the proposed mechanism, Kinect [1] is used as an input device for detecting positions of user gestures. After obtaining the positions information from Kinect, the sequences of positions are filtered to be recognized as any k...

Digital immersive virtual environment technology (IVET) enables behavioral scientists to conduct ecologically realistic experiments with near-perfect experimental control. The authors employed IVET to study the interpersonal distance maintained between participants and virtual humans. In Study 1, participants traversed a three-dimensional virtual room in which a virtual human stood. In Study 2,...
