Article Info Received on 21-November-2019, Revised on 12-December-2019, Accepted on 21-December-2019, Published on 26-December-2019. ABSTRACT In this paper we shed light on the advancement in Virtual Reality devices and talk about six latest developments. Virtual reality (VR) is a technology that allows a user to interact with a simulated computer environment, whether that environment is a simulation of the real world or an imaginary world. It is the key to experiencing, feeling and touching the past, the present and the future. It is the means of creating our own world, our own personalized reality. It could range from creating a videogame to taking a virtual tour of the universe, from walking through our own dream house to experiencing a walk through a strange planet. With virtual reality, we can experience the most intimidating and exhausting situations by playing safely and with a learning perspective. However, very few people really know what virtual reality is, what are its basic principles and its open problems.

  • Creating Accessibility in VR with Reused Motion Input
    Replay to Play: Creating Accessibility in VR with Reused Motion Input A Technical Report presented to the faculty of the School of Engineering and Applied Science University of Virginia by Cody Robertson May 8, 2020 On my honor as a University student, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment as defined by the Honor Guidelines for Thesis-Related Assignments. Signed: ___________________________________________________ Approved: ______________________________________ Date _______________________ Seongkook Heo, Department of Computer Science Replay to Play: Creating Accessibility in VR with Reused Motion Input Abstract Existing virtual reality (VR) games and applications tend not to factor in accommodations for varied levels of user ability. To enable users to better engage with this technology, a tool was developed to record and replay captured user motion to reduce the strain of complicated gross motor motions to a simple button press. This tool allows VR users with any level of motor impairment to create custom recordings of the motions they need to play VR games that have not designed for such accessibility. Examples of similar projects as well as recommendations for improvements are given to help round out the design space of accessible VR design. Introduction In many instances, high-end in-home virtual reality is synonymous with a head-mounted display (HMD) on the user’s face and motion-tracked controllers, simulating the hand’s ability to grip and hold objects, in a user’s hands. This is the case with all forms of consumer available HMD that is driven by a traditional computer rather than an integrated computer, including the Oculus Rift, Valve Index, HTC Vive, the variously produced Windows Mixed Reality HMDs, and Playstation VR with the Move Controllers.

  • Notes on Chromebooks and Neverware Cloudready Chromium
    Chromebooks Are For Seniors - Ron Brown - APCUG VTC - 8-19-17 https://youtu.be/4uszFPNL-SU http://cb4s.net/ Are Chromebooks more secure than laptops? Google’s security features in ChromeOS When Google set about designing ChromeOS it had the distinct advantage of being able to see the problems that Windows, macOS, and even Linux had struggled with when it came to security. With this in mind it implemented five key features that make ChromeOS a formidable system for hackers to crack. ​ ​ Automatic Updates As new threats become known, it’s vital that patches are applied quickly to thwart them. Google has an excellent track record on this, as not only does it release fixes on a very regular basis, but with Chromebooks guaranteed OS updates for seven years after release, the majority of users are running the most up to date version anyway. his can be an issue on other platforms, where differing combinations of OS ​ ​ versions and hardware can delay patches. Sandboxing If something does go wrong, and malware gets onto a Chromebook, there’s not much damage it can do. Each tab in ChromeOS acts as a separate entity with a restricted environment or ‘sandbox’. This means that only the ​ ​ affected tab is vulnerable, and that it is very difficult for the infection to spread to other areas of the machine. In Windows and macOS the malware is usually installed somewhere on the system itself, which makes it a threat with a much wider scope. There are ways to restrict this of course, with anti-virus software, regular system ​ ​ scans, and not running as an administrator.

  • Determining the Feasibility of a Modular Smartphone: a Systems Analysis Areeb Shahjahan – U5559531, ENGN2226 – T13, 14 October 2015
    Determining the Feasibility of a Modular Smartphone: A Systems Analysis Areeb Shahjahan – u5559531, ENGN2226 – T13, 14 October 2015 Abstract In a fast paced technology industry, companies are releasing smartphone models annually and consumers are inclined to change smartphones approximately every 2 years. A modular smartphone is a hardware customizable mobile phone made up of separate individual components. This research project aims to determine the feasibility of a modular smartphone using systems analysis methodologies. Problem scoping incorporated a survey-based qualitative analysis along with quantitative data triangulation. The specifics of the system were then examined through anthropometric and ergonomic considerations as well as material and energy factors. As a result, design recommendations included having three models sized 4”, 5”, and 5.5” (diagonal screen length) with suitable lock button positioning, and the option of a synthetic leather backing or metallic finish. Taking an environmental approach comes at a significant monetary cost; a comparative life- cycle cost analysis of a traditional smartphone and an environmental smartphone was used to deduce this. Extended analysis included optimizations in two specific scenarios: a boot-up time optimization and a NFC pay-wave feedback system. The holistic result of this investigation was that the modular smartphone is a feasible venture given that hardware and software developers dedicate separate divisions to this project and communicate comprehensively, along with a marketing strategy aimed at mainstream smartphone consumers. 1.0 Introduction The smartphone become increasingly evident in society due to its vast range of features reaching far beyond simple voice calling and texting – this includes multimedia (audio/video), internet browsing, instant messaging, widespread application databases and high resolution cameras (Suki, 2013).
