We propose a nail-mounted foldable haptic device that provides tactile feedback to mixed reality (MR) environments by pressing against the user's fingerpad when a user touches a virtual object. What is novel in our device is that it quickly tucks away ...

We demonstrate a new type of haptic actuator, which we call MagnetIO, that is comprised of two parts: one battery-powered voice-coil worn on the user's fingernail and any number of interactive soft patches that can be attached onto any surface (everyday ...

In this paper, we propose Balanced Glass Design, a system to change flavor perception. The system consists of glass-type device shifting its center of gravity in response to the user’s motion which allows drinking a beverage with a virtual perception of ...

In this work we present an augmented reality (AR) application that allows a user with an AR display to watch another user, flying an airplane in the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 (MSFS), at their respective location in the real world. To do that, we ...

We present a new paradigm of games, i.e. SwarmPlay, where each playing component is presented by an individual drone that has its own mobility and swarm intelligence to win against a human player. The motivation behind the research is to make the games ...

We propose a novel human-swarm interaction system, allowing the user to directly control a swarm of drones in a complex environment through trajectory drawing with a hand gesture interface based on the DNN-based gesture recognition.

The developed CV-...

We propose a novel projection-based virtual air hockey system in which not only the puck but also the mallet is displayed as an image. Being a projected image, the mallet can freely “metamorphose” into different shapes, which expands the game design ...

Latency can make all the difference in competitive online games. Late warp is a class of techniques used in VR that can reduce latency in FPS games as well. Prior work has demonstrated these techniques can recover most of the player performance lost to ...

When playing inter-personal sports games remotely, the time lag between user actions and feedback decreases the user’s performance and sense of agency. While computational assistance can improve performance, naive intervention independent of the ...

COVID-19 has been the cause of a global health crisis over the last year. High transmission rates of the virus threaten to cause a wave of infections which have the potential to overwhelm hospitals, leaving infected individuals without treatment. The ...

Since it is challenging to perceive space and objects with a video conferencing system, which communicates using only video and audio, there are difficulties in testing subjects in the COVID-19 pandemic. We propose the EASY-LAB system that allows an ...

This paper introduces a new artificial intelligence software which is capable of controlling devices using fingers in the air. With Ubimouse, touch-panels, restaurant ordering systems, ATM systems, and etc., which are commonly used by various people in ...

We introduce reverse pass-through VR, wherein a three-dimensional view of the wearer’s eyes is presented to multiple outside viewers in a perspective-correct manner, with a prototype headset containing a world-facing light field display. This approach, ...
