This second edition of a bestseller presents systematic and extensive coverage of the
primary areas of research and development within VE technology. It brings together a …

Collaborative Mixed-Reality (CMR) applications are gaining interest in a wide range of
areas including games, social interaction, design and health-care. To date, the vast majority …

In this paper we analyzed the performance of a peer-to-peer haptic collaboration system
with two users jointly manipulating an object with mass and dam** properties. We used …

In this paper we present the results from several global-scale haptic collaboration
experiments that were performed using the Internet. These experiments consist of three …

This paper proposes a group synchronization control scheme with prediction in work using
haptic media. The scheme adjusts the output timing among multiple terminals and keeps the …

Shared haptic virtual environments can be realized using a client-server architecture. In this
architecture, each client maintains a local copy of the virtual environment (VE). A centralized …

We present a full featured surgery simulator for endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) in an
interactive grid environment. The basic ventriculostomy simulator introduced previously has …

Users' QoE (Quality of Experience) in Multi-sensorial, Immersive, Collaborative
Environments (MICE) applications is mostly measured by psychometric studies. These …
