  • Depth Camera Technology Comparison and Performance Evaluation
    DEPTH CAMERA TECHNOLOGY COMPARISON AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION Benjamin Langmann, Klaus Hartmann and Otmar Loffeld ZESS – Center for Sensor Systems, University of Siegen, Paul-Bonatz-Strasse 9-11, Siegen, Germany Keywords: Depth, Range camera, Time-of-Flight, ToF, Photonic Mixer Device, PMD, Comparison. Abstract: How good are cheap depth cameras, namely the Microsoft Kinect, compared to state of the art Time-of- Flight depth cameras? In this paper several depth cameras of different types were put to the test on a variety of tasks in order to judge their respective performance and to find out their weaknesses. We will concentrate on the common area of applications for which both types are specified, i.e. near field indoor scenes. The characteristics and limitations of the different technologies as well as the concrete hardware implementations are discussed and evaluated with a set of experimental setups. Especially, the noise level and the axial and angular resolutions are compared. Additionally, refined formulas to generate depth values based on the raw measurements of the Kinect are presented. 1 INTRODUCTION when used outdoors.

  • Direct Interaction with Large Displays Through Monocular Computer Vision
    DIRECT INTERACTION WITH LARGE DISPLAYS THROUGH MONOCULAR COMPUTER VISION A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Information Technologies at The University of Sydney Kelvin Cheng October 2008 © Copyright by Kelvin Cheng 2008 All Rights Reserved Abstract Large displays are everywhere, and have been shown to provide higher productivity gain and user satisfaction compared to traditional desktop monitors. The computer mouse remains the most common input tool for users to interact with these larger displays. Much effort has been made on making this interaction more natural and more intuitive for the user. The use of computer vision for this purpose has been well researched as it provides freedom and mobility to the user and allows them to interact at a distance. Interaction that relies on monocular computer vision, however, has not been well researched, particularly when used for depth information recovery. This thesis aims to investigate the feasibility of using monocular computer vision to allow bare-hand interaction with large display systems from a distance. By taking into account the location of the user and the interaction area available, a dynamic virtual touchscreen can be estimated between the display and the user. In the process, theories and techniques that make interaction with computer display as easy as pointing to real world objects is explored. Studies were conducted to investigate the way human point at objects naturally with their hand and to examine the inadequacy in existing pointing systems. Models that underpin the pointing strategy used in many of the previous interactive systems were formalized.

  • PROJECTION – VISION SYSTEMS: Towards a Human-Centric Taxonomy
    PROJECTION – VISION SYSTEMS: Towards a Human-Centric Taxonomy William Buxton Buxton Design www.billbuxton.com (Draft of May 25, 2004) ABSTRACT As their name suggests, “projection-vision systems” are systems that utilize a projector, generally as their display, coupled with some form of camera/vision system for input. Projection-vision systems are not new. However, recent technological developments, research into usage, and novel problems emerging from ubiquitous and portable computing have resulted in a growing recognition that they warrant special attention. Collectively, they represent an important, interesting and distinct class of user interface. The intent of this paper is to present an introduction to projection-vision systems from a human-centric perspective. We develop a number of dimensions according to which they can be characterized. In so doing, we discuss older systems that paved the way, as well as ones that are just emerging. Our discussion is oriented around issues of usage and user experience. Technology comes to the fore only in terms of its affordances in this regard. Our hope is to help foster a better understanding of these systems, as well as provide a foundation that can assist in making more informed decisions in terms of next steps. INTRODUCTION I have a confession to make. At 56 years of age, as much as I hate losing my hair, I hate losing my vision even more. I tell you this to explain why being able to access the web on my smart phone, PDA, or wrist watch provokes nothing more than a yawn from me. Why should I care? I can barely read the hands on my watch, and can’t remember the last time that I could read the date on it without my glasses.

  • ACM SIGGRAPH Annual Report July 2019 to June 2019 Fiscal Year 2020 Submitted by Jessica Hodgins, President
    ACM SIGGRAPH Annual Report July 2019 to June 2019 Fiscal Year 2020 Submitted by Jessica Hodgins, President Mission: ACM SIGGRAPH’s mission is to nurture, champion, and connect researchers and practitioners of Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques. (Approved by ACM August 2019) Five-year Vision: Enabling Everyone to Tell Their Stories By Everyone, we mean not just our traditional audiences of the professional movie, animation, ​ ​ and game makers but everyone with a story to tell, be they trained or novice, with significant time for the development of their story or intending to publish with just a single click. By Tell, we mean all mechanisms of conveying a story: watching, experiencing, interacting, and ​ ​ creating. By Stories, we mean not only our traditional media of movies, animations, and games but also ​ ​ newer forms of media such as augmented, virtual, or mixed reality, or forms of interactive and sensory experiences not yet invented. Stories may be narrative, abstract, educational, or scientific. They may be purely digital or they may involve the physical artifacts either through incorporation or creation. Why this vision? ● Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques (CG&IT) is about communicating in innovative and inspiring ways. ● Telling stories using CG&IT, whether it’s explaining research findings, entertaining audiences, or helping people understand the world, can change societies and cultures. We want to be the showcase for the existing and emerging fields that use CG&IT to connect people. ● We want to ensure we are relevant and meaningful to our existing diverse communities—this diversity of content and community has always been a strength of SIGGRAPH.

  • Concert Promotion and Production
    CHAPTER SIXTEEN CONCERT PROMOTION AND PRODUCTION hile the monetization of recorded music has struggled mightily for years, it’s W a different story for live concerts. Although hardly immune to the vagaries of the greater economy, live music has an enormous economic advantage over recorded music. A fan must generally pay hard dollars to enjoy a live performance by a favored act, while an unauthorized shared download or a free streamdistribute puts little or nothing in the artist’s pocket. Music concerts generated $8.2 billion in surveyed 2017 ticket sales in North America, according to industry sources, not including the value of resale of tickets on the secondary market and the many acts that don’t tour nationally. Add to that sum ticket resales, corporateor sponsorships, and the economic spillover for supporting vendors and restaurants, and the vast economic footprint of live music becomes obvious. Besides generating substantial revenue from ticket sales, live concerts boost record sales. Live concerts also increase demand for artist-related licensed mer- chandise, such as T-shirts, posters, jewelry, keychains, and books. Concerts and the sale of ancillary products are so critical that major recording companies are reluctant to sign an act that doesn’t also have a compelling stage presence. And if the label does sign the act, there’s a goodpost, chance it’s part of a broad 360 deal that yields the label a healthy piece of the box office and licensed merchandise income, among other revenue streams. Three key players move and shake the concert promotion industry: the event promoter, the artist’s manager, and the tour-booking agent.
