As opposed to open surgery procedures, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) utilizes small skin
incisions to insert a camera and surgical instruments. MIS has numerous advantages such …

Consumer-grade range cameras such as the Kinect sensor have the potential to be used in
map** applications where accuracy requirements are less strict. To realize this potential …

OmniTouch is a wearable depth-sensing and projection system that enables interactive
multitouch applications on everyday surfaces. Beyond the shoulder-worn system, there is no …

This paper discusses the feasibility of using Augmented Reality (AR) to rapidly inspect
segment displacement during tunneling construction. This technology will allow on-site …

We investigate the potential of the Kinect depth-map** camera for sign language
recognition and verification for educational games for deaf children. We compare a …

An increasingly common requirement of computer systems is to extract information
regarding the people present in an environment. In this article, we provide a survey of the …

Personal fabrication machines, such as 3D printers and laser cutters, are becoming
increasingly ubiquitous. However, designing objects for fabrication still requires 3D …

Current Virtual Reality systems typically use cameras to capture user input from controllers
or free-hand mid-air interaction. In this paper, we argue that this is a key impediment to …

A metrological characterization process for time-of-flight (TOF) cameras is proposed in this
paper and applied to the Microsoft Kinect V2. Based on the Guide to the Expression of …

REVEL is an augmented reality (AR) tactile technology that allows for change to the tactile
feeling of real objects by augmenting them with virtual tactile textures using a device worn by …
