In this work we describe the scenario of fully-immersive desktop VR, which serves overall goal to seamlessly integrate with existing workflows and workplaces data analysts researchers, such that they can benefit from gain in productivity when immersed their data-spaces. Furthermore, provide a literature review showing status quo techniques methods available for realizing under raised restrictions. Finally, propose concept an analysis framework decisions made still be taken, outline how...
Although nearly one-third of the world's disease burden requires surgical care, only a small proportion digital health applications are directly used in field. In coming decades, application augmented reality (AR) with new generation optical-see-through head-mounted displays (OST-HMDs) like HoloLens (Microsoft Corp) has potential to bring into However, for be performed on living person, proof performance must first provided due regulatory requirements. this regard, cadaver studies could...
Applications of Virtual Reality (VR) have been repeatedly explored with the goal to improve data analysis process users from different application domains, such as architecture and simulation sciences. Unfortunately, making VR available in professional scenarios or even using it on a regular basis has proven be challenging. We argue that everyday usage environments, office spaces, introduced constraints critically affect design interaction concepts since well-established techniques might...
The black box problem of artificial neural networks (ANNs) is still a very relevant issue. When communicating basic concepts ANNs, they are often depicted as node-link diagrams. Despite this being straight forward way to visualize them, it rarely used outside an educational context. However, we hypothesize that large-scale diagrams full ANNs could be useful even machine learning experts. Hence, present visualization tool depicts convolutional using immersive virtual reality. We applied our...
In the machining of production parts, quality surface is subject to a variety influences. Tool wear, thermal effects and vibrations can affect machined object drastically. Some those on surface, like marks from vibrations, be seen by experts directly without measurement hardware or metrology systems. Those pieces information held are valuable finishing staff, staff data scientists, who could use them improve both product process. However, enable this exchange information, relevant needs...
Teaching in optical systems design is usually performed on an bench. While experimentation plays important role education, experiments involving expensive or dangerous components are limited to short, heavily supervised sessions. Computer simulations, the other hand, offer high accessibility, but suffer from reduced realism and tangibility when presented a 2D screen. For this reason, we present virtual bench, application that lets users explore spherical lens layouts reality (VR). We...
The design of optical lens assemblies is a difficult process that re-quires lots expertise. teaching this today done on physical benches, which are often too expensive for students to purchase. One way circumventing these costs use software simulate the bench. This work presents virtual bench, leverages realtime ray tracing in combination with VR rendering create tool creates repeatable, non-hazardous and feature-rich learning environment. resulting application was evaluated an expert review...
