  • This Vuze Camera Project Is Taken from Peter Simcoe's Forthcoming
    This Vuze camera project is taken from Peter Simcoe’s forthcoming 360 Video Handbook, available early 2018. To keep up to date with the progress and release of this book, see simcoe.co.uk/book or register your interest by emailing him at [email protected]. “The 360 Video Handbook is really a milestone for me, not only as a 360 video producer, but also as a graphic designer, traditional video producer, photographer and even musician. The experiments with Vuze camera and other 360 cameras over the last 2 years, combined with 23 years experience of creating traditional video, photography and design, led me to believe I have something to contribute to the 360 community. This book contains my own personal wish-list of project examples, frequently asked questions and technical knowledge I would have wanted to know when I began my 360 video journey and as a result is a document containing the experience, advice and inspiration I have to offer. It is also the coffee table book I always wanted to write – something easily accessible in different ways, from quick inspirational photo galleries through to detailed discussion and case studies. I aimed to create a visually stimulating book with intrinsic design value combined with solid technical considerations. I hope people enjoy reading it.” - Peter Simcoe www.simcoe.co.uk www.twitter.com/simcoemedia www.youtube.com/simcoemedia Note: The images in this document demonstrate the inclusion of the background created with Google Tilt Brush and Google Blocks.

  • Using Augmented and Virtual Reality in the Early Childhood Curriculum
    Using Augmented and Virtual Reality in the Early Childhood Curriculum Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies have much to offer the early childhood classroom. AR apps enable virtual objects and artefacts to be layered over the physical environment, whilst VR fully immerses the user in a virtual world. In this document, we explore some of the research undertaken by researchers in the DigiLitEY Cost Action, and examine the ways in which AR and VR might be used in early years classrooms. Marsh and Yamada-Rice (in press), drawing on their studies of children’s use of AR and VR apps (Marsh et al., 2015; Yamada-Rice et al., 2017), outlined five key principles which should underpin the use of AR and VR in the classroom. These are discussed throughout this document. Principle 1: The use of AR and VR needs to lead to learning experiences that are rich,meaningful and build on the affordances of the technology. Whilst AR and VR can create ‘Wow!’ moments, their use should be designed to develop learning in meaningful ways. This is best done if the activities are embedded in classroom projects. For example, in the MakEY project, which involves DigiLitEY researchers from several countries, VR was one element in a rich and varied set of activities based on the Moomins, characters developed by a Finnish author, Tove Jansson. The children watched a professional puppet show based on the Moomin stories and then created their own illuminated shoebox puppet theatres, writing playscripts to be used with these. The children also created their own clay models of the characters.

  • Exploring the Concept of Painting on a 3D Canvas Using Virtual Reality and 3D Input
    PaintSpace: Exploring the Concept of Painting on a 3D Canvas Using Virtual Reality and 3D Input Benjamin Madany Advisor: Robert Signorile Boston College Abstract 3D technology has seen a wide range of innovations, from 3D graphics and modeling to 3D printing. Among the most recent of these innovations are immersive virtual reality and 3D input. These have allowed for the creation of unique, 3D experiences, and they also present the opportunity for a wide variety of applications whose purposes range from entertainment to educational or medical use. One possibility is an extension of 3D modeling that utilizes these recent technologies to present a 3D canvas to an artist. Applications such as Google’s Tilt Brush explore this concept of drawing in 3D space. As the ability to draw in such space is novel, development of such a tool presents several challenges. This thesis explores the process of building a 3D painting application. I first present the key challenges encountered during development. Then, I detail various solutions and options related to these challenges. Next, I examine the capabilities and state of my application, and finally, I compare it to other available applications. 1. Development Challenges In designing PaintSpace, there were several key challenges that needed to be addressed. These included the following major issues: the combined input method and handling, how to convert from the received input to meaningful artifacts, and what sort of user interface and additional controls are required for this application. For each major challenge, there were various possibilities to consider. Additionally, some choices caused entirely different questions to arise.

  • Exploring the New Conventions of VR Experience
    Finding the Message: Exploring the New Conventions of VR Experience Thesis Presented By Yangli Liu To The Department of Art + Design In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Art Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts August, 2019 Finding the Message: Exploring the New Conventions of VR Experience By Yangli Liu ABSTRACT OF THESIS In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Art in the Graduate School of the College of Arts, Media and Design of Northeastern University August, 2019 2 Abstract Since 2014, a new wave of Virtual Reality (VR) development has been on the rise, calling for more artists to utilize this new technology in creating art works. However, there is still room for improvement in both the technology itself and its application in art creations. Firstly, the lack of clear definitions in VR results in many problems. Usually, the term ‘VR creators’ is used to address all of VR game producers, 360 filmmakers, and VR experience designers. This prevents the ‘creators’ from clearly defining the realm of their roles, thus the communication between them becomes less efficient. This inefficiency in turn prohibits the establishment of design patterns, forcing artists to acquire technical skills. This, in most cases, intensifies the difficulty of transdisciplinary collaborations, which are usually seen in big-budget projects promoted by big companies or famous studios. Due to the hybrid nature of this new medium, the outcome of the artwork is hard to predict. Participants’ experiences can vary widely based on their decoding performance.

  • Mid-Air Drawing of Curves on 3D Surfaces in Virtual Reality
    Mid-Air Drawing of Curves on 3D Surfaces in Virtual Reality RAHUL ARORA, University of Toronto, Canada KARAN SINGH, University of Toronto, Canada (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Fig. 1. Drawing curves mid-air that lie precisely on the surface of a virtual 3D object in AR/VR is difficult (a). Projecting mid-air 3D strokes (black) onto 3D objects is an under-constrained problem with many seemingly reasonable solutions (b). We analyze this fundamental AR/VR problem of 3D stroke projection, define and characterize multiple novel projection techniques (c), and test the two most promising approaches—spraycan shown in blue and mimicry shown in red in (b)–(d)—using a quantitative study with 20 users (d). The user-preferred mimicry technique attempts to mimic the 3D mid-air stroke as closely as possible when projecting onto the virtual object. We showcase the importance of drawing curves on 3D surfaces, and the utility of our novel mimicry approach, using multiple artistic and functional applications (e) such as interactive shape segmentation (top) and texture painting (bottom). Complex 3D curves can be created by directly drawing mid-air in immersive where its uses include: object selection, annotation, and segmenta- environments (Augmented and Virtual Realities).

  • Use of the HTC Vive in Post-Stroke Upper Limb Rehabilitation Amber
    ABSTRACT Validating Creativity: Use of the HTC Vive in Post-Stroke Upper Limb Rehabilitation Amber Schulze Director: Jonathan Rylander, Ph.D. Physical therapists often creatively use virtual reality (VR) gaming systems in rehabilitation for patients with neurological deficits. However, therapists need to be aware of what games are applicable to their patient population, as well as how the virtual environment affects patients’ perception of their motion. This study investigated how the game Google Tilt Brush, a 3D painting environment offered on the HTC Vive, could be applied in post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation, and explored limitations of the system through measuring reach distance of healthy subjects. Nine healthy subjects were recruited and asked to perform various reaching and drawing tasks while data on their movement was gathered using a Vicon motion capture system. The data showed that while in simple reaching tasks individual subjects may alter their reach distance by up to 3 cm in the virtual environment, across all subjects there is not a statistically significant change. Moreover, in more complicated drawing tasks, participants could reliably reach to particular points, but most participants missed the exact target by several centimeters. Overall, it seems that the HTC Vive and Google Tilt Brush can be utilized in post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation if therapists monitor patients to ensure they are accomplishing the desired movement.

  • Virtual Reality Library Environments Jim Hahn
    CHAPTER 16* Virtual Reality Library Environments Jim Hahn Introduction What is virtual reality (VR), and how does it impact the research and teaching missions of the modern academic library? TheHorizon Report, a resource that pro- vides an annual accounting of technologies and trends relevant to higher educa- tion, has listed virtual reality as a technology that will likely be impacting higher education in the next two to three years (Johnson et al., 2016). The 2016 Horizon Report’s higher education edition defined VR as “computer-generated environ- ments that simulate the physical presence of people and objects to generate real- istic sensory experiences” (Johnson et al., 2016, p. 40). Related to the significance of technologies such as these, the Horizon Report authors note, “VR offer[s] com- pelling applications for higher education; these technologies are poised to impact learning by transporting students to any imaginable location across the known universe and transforming the delivery of knowledge and empowering students to engage in deep learning” (Johnson et al., 2016, p. 40). However, while enthusiasm for virtual reality among educational technolo- gists is high, the field of VR specifically for teaching and research applications is rather new, and so the educational application of VR is partly conceptual at this time. There are a variety of immersive games that are just becoming available on the consumer market. These early consumer products are illustrative of what will be possible with the new VR hardware released, or soon to be released, by several large technology corporations, including Sony, Facebook, and HTC. This chapter will review VR hardware, VR apps that are currently available, and hypothetical * This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 License, CC BY (https://cre- ativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).

  • Yale University Art Students Explore Painting in 3D with VR and Tilt Brush
    Yale University Art Students Explore Painting in 3D with VR and Tilt Brush Students at the Yale University School of Arts working in the Center for Collaborative Arts and Media (CCAM) are pushing the boundaries of their own imaginations by producing life-sized, painting-like creations in three-dimensional spaces. Their instructor introduces them to virtual reality (VR) using Tilt ​ Brush, giving them the tools to create, manipulate, and reimagine their artworks from a completely new ​ perspective. Yale University’s Center for Collaborative Arts and Media (CCAM) is an interdisciplinary arts research center that brings together students from a variety of majors, including visual art, design, film, music and sound, performance, and computer science. CCAM is open to all Yale students and faculty who want to incorporate creative art into their studies. In the 2017–2018 school year, Yale School of Art’s lecturer and Assistant Director of Digital Media Anahita Vossoughi, introduced VR and Tilt Brush by Google into her Basic Drawing and Visual Thinking classes. Tilt Brush is a room-scale VR app that lets you paint in 3D space. “I wanted to broaden my students’ sense of what is possible,” she says. An accomplished painter and sculptor, Vossoughi has never been limited by traditional boundaries. “In my painting practice, paintings are not just on the wall,” she says. “I take them off, paint on the floor, turn them around, and think about them as objects.” So when Google introduced Tilt Brush as a tool to paint in 3D spaces with virtual reality, Vossoughi was eager to see what it could do.
