    Virtual and Augmented Reality in Marketing Laura Håkansson Thesis Tietojenkäsittelyn Koulutusohjelma 2018 Authors Group Laura Håkansson HETI15KIM The title of your thesis Number of Virtual and Augmented Reality in Marketing pages and appendices 56 Supervisors Heikki Hietala This thesis serves as an introduction to Virtual and Augmented Reality and explains how these two different technologies can be used in marketing. I work in marketing and have been following the evolvement of both VR and AR for a few years now. I was personally very curious to learn about how these have been implemented in marketing in the past, and what they will look like in the future, and if there are any reoccurring themes, for both VR and AR, that work best with a specific product or service. I spent a year reading the latest news and articles about various VR/AR marketing campaigns, and about the updates on these technologies that kept coming almost monthly. I also participated in different VR/AR-themed events in Helsinki to try out headsets and new AR apps, and to listen to the experts view on the potential of VR and AR. I wanted to create clear guidelines on which technology to use and how, depending on the product or service being marketed, but realized during my research that this was not possible. VR and AR are still in development, but evolving at a very fast pace, and right now it’s important to just bravely test them out without worrying about failing. I give plenty of examples in this thesis that will hopefully encourage marketers to start experimenting now, because we will see some really advanced VR and AR/MR in a few years, and those with the most experience will have great advantage in the marketing field.

In this chapter, we mainly discussed the design and application of several wearable head-mounted display (HMD) systems with the waveguide structure using the in- and out-couplers which are fabricated by the diffractive optical elements or holo - graphic volume gratings. Although the structure is simple, the waveguide-type HMDs are very efficient, especially in the practical applications, especially in the augmented reality applications, which make the device light-weighted.

The mission of ADL’s Center for Technology and Society is to ask the question “How do we secure justice and fair treatment for all in a digital environment?” Since 1985, when it published its report on “Electronic Bulletin Boards of Hate,” ADL has been at the forefront of evaluating how new technologies can be used for good and misused to promote hate and harassment in society. At the same time, ADL has worked with technology companies to show them how they can address these issues and work to make the communities their products foster more respectful and inclusive. We continue this work today alongside Silicon Valley giants such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, Microsoft, Reddit, and others. This report represents a forward-looking review of the hopes and issues raised by the newest ecosystem of community fostering technology products: social virtual reality, or social VR.

Funding Scheme: Capacities - RSME Period covered: from 1st of January 2011 to 31st of December 2012. Name of the scientific representative of the project’s co-ordinator: Antonio Dinis Title and organisation: President, VirtualDive Tel: +33(0)1 34 62 83 89 E-mail: [email protected] Project website address: www.digitalocean.eu 1 FP7-RSME-262160 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction and rationale. 70% of our planet is covered by water and the very survival of more than 50% of humanity is conditioned by oceans. Nevertheless, only 0,4% of this population have ever seen, through actual diving, what exists under the sea, beneath water’s hiding surfaces. 25 million people are considered practicing as they dive, in average, a week per year. They come essentially from Europe and from the US, are generally middle class males averaging 35 years old and are motivated by adventurous aspects of diving. The number remains practically stable. Women, children, handicapped and seniors are barely accounted for in diving. Diving remains a risky, expensive and complicated activity for the majority of people, especially in emerging markets. In such conditions, the contribution of the diving community to the discovery of undersea or to global awareness of challenges facing the oceans remains limited. There is a sense of urgency about offering to the public, ways to discover by themselves, how oceans – earth’s fragile life support system, are being neglected, irreversibly polluted and impoverished.

  • Applications of Haptic Systems in Virtual Environments: a Brief Review
    Chapter 13 Applications of Haptic Systems in Virtual Environments: A Brief Review Alma G. Rodríguez Ramírez, Francesco J. García Luna, Osslan Osiris Vergara Villegas and Manuel Nandayapa Abstract Haptic systems and virtual environments represent two innovative technologies that have been attractive for the development of applications where the immersion of the user is the main concern. This chapter presents a brief review about applications of haptic systems in virtual environments. Virtual environments will be considered either virtual reality (VR) or augmented reality (AR) by their virtual nature. Even if AR is usually considered an extension of VR, since most of the augmentations of reality are computer graphics, the nature of AR is also virtual and will be taken as a virtual environment. The applications are divided in two main categories, training and assistance. Each category has subsections for the use of haptic systems in virtual environments in education, medicine, and industry. Finally, an alternative category of entertainment is also discussed. Some repre- sentative research on each area of application isPROOF described to analyze and to discuss which are the trends and challenges related to the applications of haptic systems in virtual environments. Keywords Haptic systems Á Virtual environments Á Augmented reality Virtual reality 13.1 Introduction Humans are in constant interaction with different environments. The interaction is possible through the sense of sight, touch, taste, hearing, and smell. Basic knowledgeREVISED is learned through the five senses. Particularly, sight, hearing, and touch are essential to acquire knowledge based on the fact that people learn best when they see, hear, and do (Volunteer Development 4H-CLUB-100 2016).

    SUPPORTING MULTI-USER INTERACTION IN CO-LOCATED AND REMOTE AUGMENTED REALITY BY IMPROVING REFERENCE PERFORMANCE AND DECREASING PHYSICAL INTERFERENCE Ohan Oda Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Ohan Oda All rights reserved ABSTRACT Supporting Multi-User Interaction in Co-Located and Remote Augmented Reality by Improving Reference Performance and Decreasing Physical Interference Ohan Oda One of the most fundamental components of our daily lives is social interaction, ranging from simple activities, such as purchasing a donut in a bakery on the way to work, to complex ones, such as instructing a remote colleague how to repair a broken automobile. While we inter- act with others, various challenges may arise, such as miscommunication or physical interference. In a bakery, a clerk may misunderstand the donut at which a customer was pointing due to the uncertainty of their finger direction. In a repair task, a technician may remove the wrong bolt and accidentally hit another user while replacing broken parts due to unclear instructions and lack of attention while communicating with a remote advisor. This dissertation explores techniques for supporting multi-user 3D interaction in aug- mented reality in a way that addresses these challenges. Augmented Reality (AR) refers to inter- actively overlaying geometrically registered virtual media on the real world. In particular, we address how an AR system can use overlaid graphics to assist users in referencing local objects accurately and remote objects efficiently, and prevent co-located users from physically interfer- ing with each other.

    International Conference on Artificial Reality and Telexistence Eurographics Symposium on Virtual Environments (2018) G. Bruder, S. Cobb, and S.

In the experiment effects of visual and haptic assistance at difficult passages are examined. Abstract Current advances in mixed reality (MR) technology achieves both, making the sensations more immersive and plausible, but also increase the utilization of these technologies in robotics. Their low-cost and the low effort to integrate such a system in complex facilities makes them interesting for industrial application. We present an efficient implementation of “virtual fixtures” [BR92] and the evaluation in a task of three different difficulties. Finally, it is discussed if the method is successfully implemented without real physical barriers and if human performance is effected in teleoperation or teleprogramming of industrial robots.

The outdoor location tracking can easily be supported by GPS. However, the technology of tracking smart device users indoor position is not at the same maturity level as outdoor tracking. AR technology could enable the tracking on users indoor location by scanning the AR marker with their smart devices. However, due to several limitations (capacity, error tolerance, etc.) AR markers are not widely adopted. Therefore, not serving as a good candidate to be a tracking marker. This paper carries out a research question whether QR code can replace the AR marker as the tracking marker to detect smart devices’ user indoor position. The paper has discussed the research question by researching the background of the QR code and AR technology. According to the research, QR code should be a suitable choice to implement as a tracking marker. Comparing to the AR marker, QR code has a better capacity, higher error tolerance, and widely adopted.
