A Song in HiS HeArt I am writing to let you know that my father, Robert Favreau ’52, passed away at his home in Pottsville, Pa., on June 16. Before he died, his grandson, Ryan Drasher ’04, emailed the lyrics of the WPI alma mater to his father, so that he could sing them to Bob at his bedside. Bob’s eyes lit up at the memory, as they did whenever he talked of WPI (which to him was always Worcester Tech). My father had a great life, in large part due to the education he received at WPI and the friendships he made there. My sister and I heard more than one epic tale about fun times with college friends at The Boynton! — Robin Harley trask, ScAnlon, remembered After graduating from WPI, I did my master’s in industrial engineering at URI and then my Army ROTC commitment.

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.
