ABSTRACT
While many VR demos involve two users or one using a virtual agent, few contemplate using social VR. Many live demos at industry conferences do not adequately address the social aspect of VR and will not explore its possibilities. Given that Immersive experiences are moving more and more to social VR experiences, it is crucial to discuss its development and implications in various applications, such as arts, games, entertainment, health, and education.

AbstractIn this survey, we explore Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality within social learning spaces, such as classrooms and museums, while also extending into relevant social interaction concepts found within more reality-based and social immersive ...
VR Grabbers: Ungrounded Haptic Retargeting for Precision Grabbing Tools
UIST '18: Proceedings of the 31st Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and TechnologyHaptic feedback in VR is important for realistic simulation in virtual reality. However, recreating the haptic experience for hand tools in VR traditionally requires hardware with precise actuators, adding complexity to the system. We propose Ungrounded ...
