 Virtual Reality (VR) systems allows the design of interactive and immersive environments for the simulation of a wide range of situations. These features has been exploited to build realistic applications in order to provide study and training in several areas, particularly in medicine. In this sense, the addition of techniques to assess the actions of users can provide simulations based on v...

This manuscript titled " A multichannel visualization module for virtual manufacturing " has not been published already, nor is it under consideration for publication or in press elsewhere. Abstract Immersive virtual reality (VR) for manufacturing planning helps reduce product development time periods and improves the quality of the production. However, immersive VR equipment is generally expen...

CoastBase is a project that aims to device a system for European marine and coastal management, concerning both the search for and access to a broad range of information sources. In this paper, one central part of the overall system, the virtual catalogue mo dule, will be presented. It facilitates the search through distributed and heterogeneous information sources by implementing an I3 Referen...

Syzygies capture intricate geometric properties of a subvariety in projective space. However, when the ambient space is a product of projective spaces or a more general smooth projective toric variety, minimal free resolutions over the Cox ring are too long and contain many geometrically superfluous summands. In this paper, we construct some much shorter free complexes that better encode the ge...

Selecting a configuration for a machine tool that will best suit the needs of a forecast set of requirements can be a difficulty and costly exercise. This problem can now be addressed using an integrated virtual validation system. The system includes kinematic/ dynamic analysis, kinetostatic model, CAD module, FEM module, CAM module, optimization module and visual environment for simulation and...

Smart Classroom is an augmented classroom in which Tele-education functions can be seamlessly integrated with the face-to-face education environment. Some recent achievements of this project is described here. The first is the development of the Virtual Assistant module, which can enhance the speech interaction between the teacher and the system. Following is the integration of a SmartBoard scr...

This paper aims to provide design on augmented reality (AR) based smart exhibition system to encourage user participation. If the conventional way to observe exhibition was merely on visual of the products at hand, the smart exhibition that uses augmented reality will enable users to get in-depth information not only via text, image, and video, but also through 3D virtual object in real-time ba...
