ZoeMatrope for realistic and augmented materials
Summary:
We introduce ZoeMatrope that can display a variety of materials with high resolution, dynamic range and light field fidelity by using real objects and characteristics of the human vision system. ZoeMatrope can create augmented materials and will result in technology that seamlessly links the real object and augmented objects.

See-through Light Field Displays for Augmented Reality
Summary:
Here, we introduce augmented reality displays using holographic optical elements. First, implementation of additive light field displays is described. Second, configuration of wearable near-eye displays is presented. Both of displays have transparency due to the versatility of holographic optical elements. We believe our works to contribute to augmented reality.

PiGraphs: Learning Interaction Snapshots from Observations
Summary:
Using real-world observations of everyday actions we learn a probabilistic model connecting human poses and arrangements of object geometry which we encode as a set of Prototypical Interactions Graphs. We use this model to generate Interaction Snapshots: static depictions of human poses and relevant objects during human-object interactions.

Evaluating Physical Quantities and Learning Human Utilities From RGBD Videos
Summary:
We devise algorithms that employ physics-based simulation to infer the relevant forces/pressures acting on body parts. We account for people’s preferences in terms of human utilities, which transcend comfort intervals to account also for meaningful tasks within scenes and spatiotemporal constraints in motion planning.

Towards VR and AR Enhancement: Light Field Display with Mid-air Interaction
Summary:
We present a 360° light field display to visualize 3D objects above the table-top screen, and provide a graspable and measurable virtual or augmented reality environment. We envision this solution take the first step towards a compact virtual or augmented reality environment candidate for a variety of applications.

LumiSpace: A VR Architectural Daylighting Design System
Summary:
We built a VR daylighting design system for architects to design an indoor daylighting experience. With this system, users can import 3d models, and interact with the architecture in space. They can draw the lighting areas they want and receive system-generated window openings, given the present sunlight condition.

A Virtual Reality Platform for Dynamic Human-Scene Interaction
Summary:
We propose a system in which Virtual Reality and human / finger pose tracking is integrated to allow interaction with virtual environments in real time. We demonstrated how our system can be used to represent multi-jointed agent and in the end for robot task planning.

Effects of Avatar and Background Representation Forms to Co-Presence in Mixed Reality (MR) Tele-conference Systems
Summary:
In this paper, we proposed to carry out a preliminary study of the effectiveness of mixed reality based 3D collaborative systems in two dimensions: (1) the form of the background (real vs. virtual) and (2) the form of user (photo-realistically reconstructed vs. pre-built 3D avatar).

Joint Labelling and Segmentation for 3D Scanned Human Body
Summary:
3D human body mesh segmentation is different from general mesh segmentation, the surfaces share similar colors more likely belong to the same part. We combine color features and geometric features into data term and smooth term to make the segmentation more accurate. We do some experiment to test our approach.

Automatic skeleton generation using hierarchical mesh segmentation
Summary:
Virtual reality meets physical reality. Witness how humanoid models can be easily made interactive in the virtual reality. As models are transported in the virtual reality, they are made dynamic by applying animations on the skeletal structures generated by our algorithm.
