In a virtual world viewed with a head-mounted display, the user may wish to perform certain actions under the control of a manual input device. The most important of these actions...
Designing the illumination of a scene is a di cult task because one needs to render the whole scene in order to look at the result. Obtaining the correct lighting e ects may requi...
Direct volume rendering is a computationally intensive operation that has become a valued and often preferred visualization tool. For maximal data comprehension, interactive manip...
In this paper, we present techniques for integratingconstraint and direct manipulation approaches to geometric modeling. Direct manipulation positioning techniques are augmented t...
This paper presents a general system for camera movement upon which a wide variety of higher-level methods and applications can be built. In addition to the basic commands for cam...

Techniques are discussed for creating a rendered view into a 3D scene,interactively based on the locations and orientations of the observer's head and the display surface. St...
The 3D components of today's user interfaces are still underdeveloped. Direct interaction with 3D objects has been limited thus far to gestural picking, manipulation with lin...
