Our method supports the use of 3D imaging techniques for tracking the user's body and therefore it does not require the use of any hand held devices that would restrict the manipulative capabilities of the user's hands. The key contribution of our work is the novel use of characteristic behavioral cues, which are representative for general goal directed movement, to infer the object targeted by the user during selection. The resulting technique enables us to select objects whose largest dimension is smaller than the sensing resolution of our system in spite of body tracking uncertainties and hand placement faults. Furthermore, by means of intention inference, our method automatically adapts to the user's subjective need for variable levels of tolerance to hand placement faults, jitter, or tracking noise.","PeriodicalId":131267,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces (3DUI)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115486722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objects are metaphors for note keys organized in multiple lines, forming a playable spatial instrument where the player can perform certain sequences of notes and chords across the scale employing short gestures that minimizes jump distances. The idea of different arrangements for notes over the playable space is not new, being pursued on alternative keyboards for instance. This implementation employed an Oculus Rift and a Razer Hydra for gesture input and showed that customization of instrumental mappings using 3D tools can contribute to ease the performance of complex songs by allowing fast execution of specific note combinations.","PeriodicalId":131267,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces (3DUI)","volume":"86 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123178087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we propose a novel ROS (Robot Operating System)-integrated interface for remote control that allows the user to teleoperate the robot using his hands motion. The user can adjust online the autonomy of the robot between two levels: direct control and waypoint following. The hand tracking and gestures recognition capabilities of the Leap Motion device are exploited to generate the control commands. The user receives a real-time 3D augmented visual feedback using a Kinect sensor and a HMD. To assess the practicability of the system experimental results are presented using as a benchmark the remote control of a Kuka Youbot.","PeriodicalId":131267,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Symposium on 3D User Interfaces (3DUI)","volume":"76 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127547438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
