ABSTRACT
We try to explore a way to provide efficient tools to navigate and interact efficiently and in a generic way within 3D virtual universes. We propose a new concept: the Immersive Virtual Cabin, which defines the 3D workspace of the user, which allows to carry virtual tools for 3D interactions, and which is capable to adapt these tools to the changes of universes' scale. We try to show that navigation in 3D virtual universes is not only the change of a viewpoint, but also the move of the interaction space.

Head-mounted display with mid-air tactile feedback
VRST '15: Proceedings of the 21st ACM Symposium on Virtual Reality Software and TechnologyVirtual and physical worlds are merging. Currently users of head-mounted displays cannot have unobtrusive tactile feedback while touching virtual objects. We present a mid-air tactile feedback system for head-mounted displays. Our prototype uses the ...
Virtual memory palaces: immersion aids recall
AbstractVirtual reality displays, such as head-mounted displays (HMD), afford us a superior spatial awareness by leveraging our vestibular and proprioceptive senses, as compared to traditional desktop displays. Since classical times, people have used ...
