ABSTRACT
Immersive reality technologies have been widely utilized in the area of cultural heritage, also known as Virtual Heritage. We present a tangible Virtual Reality (VR) interaction demo that allows users to freely walk in the physical space while engaging with digital and tangible objects in a “learning area”. The space setup includes stations that are used symbiotically in the virtual and physical environments, such setup defines consistency throughout the experience. With this method, we enhance the immersive learning experience by mapping the large virtual space into a smaller physical place with a seamless transition.

VR Book: A Tangible Interface for Smartphone-based Virtual Reality
MobiQuitous '20: MobiQuitous 2020 - 17th EAI International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and ServicesIn this work we present three prototypes of the tangible VR Book: a visual marker-based solution to tangible interaction for smartphone-based Virtual Reality (VR). Smartphone-based VR represents a low barrier to entry in VR experiences given that many ...
Tangible VR: Diegetic Tangible Objects for Virtual Reality Narratives
DIS '17: Proceedings of the 2017 Conference on Designing Interactive SystemsWe present a system for diegetic tangible objects in virtual reality (VR) narratives. The system integrates a custom-designed sensor unit, built with low-cost off-the-shelf hardware, to track objects in VR and to support a variety of custom-made and ...
The effect of immersion towards place presence in virtual heritage environments
AbstractDespite the advancement of digital technology in virtual heritage (VH) projects, there is still a paucity of research in methods to support sense of place in architectural virtual heritage environment (VHE). This paper argues that studies on the ...
