Shadowing effects dramatically enhance the realism of virtual environments by providing useful visual cues. Shadow mapping is an efficient algorithm for real-time shadow renderin...
This paper introduces a multicast based architecture for supporting large scale Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs). The paper begins by defining CVEs, discussing the motivat...
— The problem of simultaneous localization and mapping has received much attention over the last years. Especially large scale environments, where the robot trajectory loops back...
Actual graphic hardware becomes more and more powerful. Consequently, virtual scenes can be rendered in a very good quality integrating dynamic behavior, real-time shadows, bump m...
This paper reports on the development of a novel mixed reality I/O device tailored to the requirements of interaction with geo-spatial data in the immediate environment of the use...
