  • Walk-Centric User Interfaces for Mixed Reality
    Walk-Centric User Interfaces for Mixed Reality Wallace Santos Lages Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Computer Science and Applications Doug A. Bowman, Committee Chair Joe Gabbard Tobias Höllerer Chris L. North Nicholas F. Polys June 22, 2018 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, 3D User Interfaces Copyright © 2018 by Wallace Santos Lages Walk-Centric User Interfaces for Mixed Reality Wallace Santos Lages ABSTRACT Walking is a natural part of our lives and is also becoming increasingly common in mixed reality. Wireless headsets and improved tracking systems allow us to easily navigate real and virtual environments by walking. In spite of the benefits, walking brings challenges to the design of new systems. In particular, designers must be aware of cognitive and motor requirements so that walking does not negatively impact the main task. Unfortunately, those demands are not yet fully understood. In this dissertation, we present new scientific evidence, interaction designs, and analysis of the role of walking in different mixed reality applications. We evaluated the difference in performance of users walking vs. manipulating a dataset during visual analysis. This is an important task, since virtual reality is increasingly being used as a way to make sense of progressively complex datasets. Our findings indicate that neither option is absolutely better: the optimal design choice should consider both user’s experience with controllers and user’s inherent spatial ability. Participants with reasonable game experience and low spatial ability performed better using the manipulation technique.

  • Appendix a and Appendix B
    This PDF contains 2 Appendices: Appendix A and Appendix B. Appendix A Answers to the Test Your Knowledge Questions This appendix has the answers to the questions in the Test Your Knowledge section at the end of each chapter. Chapter 1 – Hello, C#! Welcome, .NET! 1. Why can a programmer use different languages, for example, C# and F#, to write applications that run on .NET? Answer: Multiple languages are supported on .NET because each one has a compiler that translates the source code into intermediate language (IL) code. This IL code is then compiled to native CPU instructions at runtime by the CLR. 2. What do you type at the prompt to create a console app? Answer: You enter dotnet new console. 3. What do you type at the prompt to build and execute C# source code? Answer: In a folder with a ProjectName.csproj file, you enter dotnet run. 4. What is the Visual Studio Code keyboard shortcut to view Terminal? Answer: Ctrl + ` (back tick). Answers to the Test Your Knowledge Questions 5. Is Visual Studio 2019 better than Visual Studio Code? Answer: No. Each is optimized for different tasks. Visual Studio 2019 is large, heavy- weight, and can create applications with graphical user interfaces, for example, Windows Forms, WPF, UWP, and Xamarin.Forms mobile apps, but it is only available on Windows. Visual Studio Code is smaller, lighter-weight, code-focused, supports many more languages, and is available cross-platform. In 2021, with the release of .NET 6 and .NET Multi-platform App User Interface (MAUI), Visual Studio Code will get an extension that enables building user interfaces for desktop and mobile apps.

With most of the research and development focused on delivering the promise of MR, there is only barely a few working on the privacy and security implications of this technology. is survey paper aims to put in to light these risks, and to look into the latest security and privacy work on MR. Specically, we list and review the dierent protection approaches that have been proposed to ensure user and data security and privacy in MR. We extend the scope to include work on related technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and human-computer interaction (HCI) as crucial components, if not the origins, of MR, as well as numerous related work from the larger area of mobile devices, wearables, and Internet-of-ings (IoT). We highlight the lack of investigation, implementation, and evaluation of data protection approaches in MR. Further challenges and directions on MR security and privacy are also discussed.

    Build 2017 Joe Belfiore, Corporate Vice President, Windows May 10, 2017 (Music, cheers, applause.) JOE BELFIORE: Hello, Build! Good morning. Thank you for that nice welcome. I'm thrilled to be back here at Build with all of you talking about the Windows platform and what we'll do in Windows. What do you think? You like it? (Cheers, applause.) I call this "graphite gold." Graphite gold? You know, I'm trying to help out all the people who are confusing me and Alex Kipman. I figured I'd make it a little more obvious. So what did you think about Lorraine's demo? Pretty cool, huh? (Cheers, applause.) What I'm going to do, I want to take you through some of the technology and features behind what she did and talk about how we're expanding those ideas into Windows into all of your apps. So think about what she showed in Story Remix. She was moving between devices seamlessly, even from Windows to different platforms, but it involved multiple users. She used different input modalities. There was touch and mouse and inking. And she took advantage of totally cool new technologies like 3D and mixed reality. And all of those things make the app more engaging and we want to spend some time talking about this notion of love and engagement and how we can help you solve today's challenges of device, input, and platform diversity. And make it easy for your apps to take advantage of things like 3D and mixed reality, all in a way that will drive higher engagement and love for your app.

Virtual Reality (VR) has emerged and developed as a new modality to interact with multimedia data. In this paper, we present vitrivr-VR, a prototype of an interactive multimedia retrieval system in VR based on the open source full-stack multimedia retrieval system vitrivr. We have implemented query formulation tailored to VR: Users can use speech-to-text to search collections via text for concepts, OCR and ASR data as well as entire scene descriptions through a video-text co-embedding feature that embeds sentences and video sequences into the same feature space. Result presentation and relevance feedback in vitrivr-VR leverages the capabilities of virtual spaces. Keywords: Video Browser Showdown · Virtual Reality · Interactive Video Retrieval 1 Introduction The Video Browser Showdown (VBS) [14] is an annual interactive video search competition where video retrieval systems are evaluated competitively through a variety of search tasks on large video datasets.
