Abstract

The following paper investigates the effect on the intensity of perceived vection by changing the field of view (FOV) using a headmounted display (HMD) in a virtual environment (VE). For this purpose a study was carried out, where the participants were situated in a vection evoking VE using a HMD. During the experiment, the VE was presented with different FOVs, and a measurement of the felt intensity of vection was performed. The results indicate that a decrease of the FOV invokes a decrease of the intensity of perceived vection.

Addressing Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing People in Avatar-Based Mixed Reality Collaboration Systems

We propose an easy to integrate Automatic Speech Recognition and textual visualization extension for an avatar-based MR remote collaboration system that visualizes speech via spatial floating speech bubbles. In a small pilot study, we achieved word accuracy of our extension of 97% by measuring the widely used word error rate.

Perceptual Comparison of Four Upscaling Algorithms for Low-Resolution Rendering for Head-mounted VR Displays

When rendering images in real-time, shading pixels is a comparatively expensive
operation. Especially for head-mounted displays, where separate images are rendered for
each eye and high frame rates need to be achieved. Upscaling algorithms are one possibility
of reducing the pixel shading costs. Four basic upscaling algorithms are implemented in a
VR rendering system, with a subsequent user study on subjective image quality. We find
that users preferred methods with a better contrast preservation.

Localization Service Using Sparse Visual Information Based on Recent Augmented Reality Platforms

Localization Service Using Sparse Visual Information Based on Recent Augmented Reality Platforms

The ability to localize a device or user precisely within a known space, would allow many use cases on the context of location-based augmented reality. We propose a localization service based on sparse visual information using ARCore, a state-of-the-art augmented reality platform for mobile devices.
