Book excerpt: We explored interaction within the context of handheld Augmented Reality (AR), where a handheld device is used as a physical magic lens to 'augment' the physical surrounding. We focused, in particular, on the role of spatial relations between the on-screen content and the physical surrounding. On the one hand, spatial relations define opportunities for mixing environments, such as the adaptation of the digital augmentation to the user's location. On the other hand, spatial relations involve specific constraints for interaction such as the impact of hand tremor on on-screen camera image stability. The question is then, how can we relax spatial constraints while maintaining the feeling of digital-physical collocation. Our contribution is three-fold. First, we propose a design space for handheld AR on-screen content with a particular focus on the spatial relations between the different identified frames of reference. This design space defines a framework for systematically studying interaction with handheld AR applications. Second, we propose and evaluate different handheld AR pointing techniques to improve pointing precision. Indeed, with handheld AR set-up, both touch-screen input and the spatial relations between the on-screen content and the physical surrounding impair the precision of pointing. Third, as part of a collaborative research project involving AIST-Tsukuba and Schneider- France and Japan, we developed a toolkit supporting the development of handheld AR applications. The toolkit has been used to develop several demonstrators.

This book was released on 2018-05-23 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Augmented Reality, also termed AR, a view of the real world is augmented by superimposing computer-generated graphics, thereby enriching or enhancing the perception of the reality. Today, lots of applications benefit from AR in different areas, such as education, medicine, navigation, construction, gaming, and multiple other areas, using primarily head-mounted AR displays and AR on hand-held smart devices. Tablets and phones are highly suitable for AR, as they are equipped with high resolution screens, good cameras and powerful processing units, while being readily available to both industry and home use. They are used with video see-through AR, were the live view of the world is captured by a camera in real time and subsequently presented together with the computer graphics on the display. In this thesis I put forth our recent work on improving video see-through Augmented Reality graphics and interaction for hand-held devices by applying and utilizing user perspective. On the rendering side, we introduce a geometry-based user perspective rending method aiming to align the on screen content with the real view of the world visible around the screen. Furthermore, we introduce a device calibration system to compensate for misalignment between system parts. On the interaction side we introduce two wand-like direct 3D pose manipulation techniques based on this user perspective. We also modified a selection technique and introduced a new one suitable to be used with our introduced manipulation techniques. Finally, I present several formal user studies, evaluating the introduced techniques and comparing them with concurrent state-of-the-art alternatives.

Download or read book Exploring Social Play in a Shared Hybrid Space Enabled by Handheld Augmented Reality written by Yan Xu and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reality-based interfaces bring new design opportunities to social games. These novel game interfaces, exemplified by Wii, Kinect, and Smart phones, leverage players' existing physics, bodily, environmental, and social skills. Moreover, they enable a shared hybrid physical-digital space in which the players' co-presence can be enhanced by their physical and digital co-location. However, many digital social games occupy players' attention with the digital display and content, reducing their attention spent on one another and limiting the synchronization of actions and emotions among players. How do we design technologies that do not interfere with social play but enhance and innovate it? \r :In this thesis work, I focus on one particular kind of reality-based interfaces, Handheld Augmented Reality (HAR), to extend players' interaction from the small mobile devices to the shared hybrid space around a computationally trackable surface. This thesis explores how to encourage social play with HAR interfaces, which brings in challenges of designing with the affordances and constraints of the HAR interface, understanding the complicated phenomenon of social play, and integrating these understandings in multiplayer HAR game design. Adopting Research-through Design as the overarching research method, I collaborate with multiple teams, design and study three multiplayer HAR game prototypes. I present four main contributions. First, this work yields design artifacts and examples of social games with HAR interfaces. I communicate to the game design and Augmented Reality communities through these prototypes, including BragFish, ARt of Defense, and NerdHerder. Second, I provide empirical findings on social play in a shared hybrid space. Through lab-based user studies, observation, video analysis, interviews, and surveys, I collect and analyze interpersonal play behaviors and emotions in the shared hybrid space enabled by the HAR interface. Third, I adopt and adapt sociological theories to the domain of social games. I generate a list of theory-based design guidelines for co-located social games, especially HAR games. I prove its usefulness through the user study on an HAR game that embodies a subset of these design guidelines. Fourth, this thesis work is a case study that bridges Human Computer Interaction knowledge and methods with game design practices. It shows the outcome and benefits of multidisciplinary research, calling for more effort in integrating reality-based interfaces, as playful and experimental design materials, into different phases of game design process.
