Touching More than 3 Dimensions Research Into Novel Interfaces – three dimensions and above

Editor's Notes

  • #6 ACRESCENTAR VIDEO MINORITY REPORT
  • #7 Pinter accao natural 3D Modelling should rely on more natural interaction techniques and take more advantage of virtual environments not only for visualization Ambientes Virtuais e Estereo mas não so para visualizacao Mas tambem para modelacao O conteudo virtual deveria libertar restricoes fisicas das maquetes
  • #11 The Continuous Interaction Space: Interaction Techniques Unifying Touch and Gesture On and Above a Digital Surface
  • #22 Questionnaire Analysis
  • #23 Questionnaire Analysis
  • #34 Implicit Switch between creation and manipulation DH : Sketching NDH : Manipulation (T R S 1 or 2 fingers/hands)
  • #35 On and Above Surface Interaction On surface: Sketch Based Modeling Interface Above the surface: Push and Pull Modelling Metaphor Shapes created by extrusion Topological Features (Vertex, Edge, Faces) Movable Curvilinear Extrusion
  • #36 Contextual Simple Menu (2D layer) Selection DH Menu Location NDH Only Visible if NDH close to surface Fading Effect Dynamic Moving
  • #37 DH Modelling NDH Operation Attribute complement DH NDH Operation mode Snapping Clonning Constraint Snapping Switch between surface and space Discrete Constraint Position of Clonning Activate Mirror Plane for Sketches Limit Extrusion while Extruding Continuous Constraint Scaling Profile Factor while extruding (cone, frustum...) Constraint Definition
  • #56 Working/Virtual Space Co-location Simple Operators and Dialogues Data Fusion from several devices Benefits of on and above interaction Continuous transition surface and space Asymmetric Bimanual Interaction Implicit Mode Switch Good Not error prone for non familiar users Some relaxation needed Button vs Pinch gesture vs other modalities Physics Initially considered for Modeling Sketch based Beautification (measures needed)
  • #57 Also, As prof-of-concept for person to device interactions, We devised the role of the moderator of the meeting, when in close proximity to a wall display, the person assuming that role can perform actions that relate to every participant.
  • #58 People like to meet in person, and when they do, they communicate in different manners besides verbally. Edward Hall states that space and distance play key roles in the way people communicate. Therefore, Proxemics are a non-verbal type of communication and can be exploited in the context of virtual meetings.
  • #59 We use the Proxemic Distances model to provide the necessary knowledge to bring social interactions into virtual meetings. To provide, the means for people to implicitly and automatically start remote interactions just by getting together.
  • #60 Avatars and telepresence robots are a poor representation of people, and they contribute to the lack of presence Our model do not play by the same rules The question is not how well we represent people. The important part of our research is the representation of interactions occurring around the room.
  • #61 We use a ceiling mounted projector to display floor circles which account for the position of all eery space participants. In this way, every one becomes aware of their intimate space (the inner circle) and their personal space (the outer ring). The dimensions follow the proxemic distances proposed by Edward Hall. In this figure, we display two people forming a social bubble, and performing a collaborative task. Again, there is no need for high definition avatars or video for people to know about the presence of others.
  • #62 Working/Virtual Space Co-location Simple Operators and Dialogues Data Fusion from several devices Benefits of on and above interaction Continuous transition surface and space Asymmetric Bimanual Interaction Implicit Mode Switch Good Not error prone for non familiar users Some relaxation needed Button vs Pinch gesture vs other modalities Physics Initially considered for Modeling Sketch based Beautification (measures needed)
