In this study, we concentrate on the impact of large displays in virtual reality depending on the tasks and users' characteristics. The two virtual reality tasks studied are the objects manipulation and the navigation in an environment. The users' characteristics studied are the visual attention abilities. Forty subjects participated in the experimentation composed of cognitive tests used to evaluate visual attentional abilities and a set of virtual reality tasks. Our study exhibits two main conclusions. (i) Large displays positively impact on performances for some kinds of virtual reality tasks. (ii) Users with low level of attentional abilities take more advantage of large displays. We conclude that large displays can be considered as cognitive aids depending on the tasks and users' characteristics.","PeriodicalId":325699,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Visualisation and Interaction in Africa","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125956588","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}

Advanced work on 3D data modeling and structuring is proposed. In Bioinformatics, DNA sequences are often represented within linear format. However, they also have a three-dimensional structure potentially suitable for genomic analysis. The representation of such 3D structure allows biologists to observe and analyze genomes in an interactive way at different levels: from gene to chromosome. We developed a powerful software platform that provides a new point of view for sequences analysis: <i>ADN-Viewer</i>. Nevertheless, a classical eukaryotic chromosome of 40 million base pairs requires about 6 Gbytes of 3D data. In order to manage these huge masses of data in real-time, we designed various scene management algorithms and immersive human-computer interaction for <i>user-friendly</i> data exploration.","PeriodicalId":325699,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Visualisation and Interaction in Africa","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124872096","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}

Straightened hair is represented explicitly, and modelled by defining and replicating a few control hairs. Braids and twists are implemented as textured generalized cylinders.\u0000 A synthesis of existing hair illumination models is used as a basis for an African hair illumination model.

The relationship between optimal kaleidoscope layout, and factors such as hardware restrictions and the resolution of the required reflectance function, is derived. The effect on the measurement of the reflectance function of changing these independent variables is examined through the simulation. These experiments highlight issues affecting the measurement of BTFs using kaleidoscopes, and suggest configurations that allow sampling at regular parameter intervals. A number of other kaleidoscope architectures are explored, which offer the benefits of potentially doubling the range of directions that can be sampled, and allowing adaptive control of sample intervals.","PeriodicalId":325699,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Visualisation and Interaction in Africa","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128651060","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}

Our approach is motivated by two key observations: First, that there is a wealth of information in prior explorations of a scene that can assist in future presentations of the same scene. Second, current linear perspective camera models produce images that are too limited to adequately capture the complexity of many 3D scenes. The contributions of this paper are two-fold. First, we show how spatial and temporal subdivision schemes can be used to store camera navigation information that is data mined and clustered to be interactively applicable to a number of existing techniques. Second, we show how the movement of a traditional linear perspective camera is closely tied to non-linear projections that combine space and time. As a result, we present a coherent system where the navigation of a conventional camera is data mined to provide both the understandability of linear perspective and the flexibility of non-linear projection of a 3D scene in real-time. Our system's generality is illustrated by three visualization techniques built with a single data mining and projection infrastructure.","PeriodicalId":325699,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Visualisation and Interaction in Africa","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121969239","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}

Rendering data sets of that size is time consuming even with commodity graphics hardware. The QSplat technique that has been introduced by S. Rusinkiewics and M. Levoy of Stanford University is used for the inter-active point based visualization of large 3D scenes. Nevertheless, it has some drawbacks like the storage requirement which is still higher. The objective of our work we present in this paper is to improve the per-node storage requirements of QSplat models and to minimize the transmission cost in streaming QSplat models across low-bandwidth networks or bottlenecked networks. To do that, we focus on coding strategies which provide reasonable data reduction at low decoding complexity. In this context, Huffman and relative delta encoding fit well with our purposes. The performances of the compression process are studied and the rendering algorithm is extended in order to be able to work on compressed data without loosing the original system interactivity.","PeriodicalId":325699,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Visualisation and Interaction in Africa","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125476470","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 1963 the temple was dismantled and moved to a new site in order to save it from the rising waters of the Lake Nasser. Computer graphics in collaboration with Egyptologists makes it possible to recreate the temple on a computer, place it back to its original location and orientation, and illuminate it, as it may have appeared some 2000 years ago. Accuracy is of the highest importance in such archaeological reconstructions when investigating how a site might have appeared in the past. Failure to use the highest fidelity means there is a very real danger of misrepresenting the past.\u0000 This paper describes the practical methodology that should be undertaken in order to create a high fidelity reconstruction and realistic lighting simulation of an ancient Egyptian temple.","PeriodicalId":325699,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Visualisation and Interaction in Africa","volume":"80 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134530138","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}

Major aspects of this theory are explored, such as multiple representations, reflexivity, exploration, scaffolding and user control.

Directly handling free-form surfaces such as spline or subdivision surfaces instead of first tesselating them offers many advantages such as higher precision results, reduced memory requirements, and faster preprocessing due to less primitives. However, existing algorithms for ray tracing free-form surfaces are much too slow for interactive use.\u0000 In this paper we present a simple and generic approach for ray tracing free-form surfaces together with specific implementations for cubic Bézier and Loop subdivision surfaces. We show that our approach allows to increase the performance by more than an order of magnitude, requires only constant memory, and is largely independent on the total number of free-form primitives in a scene. Examples demonstrate that even scene with over one hundred thousand free-form surfaces can be rendered interactively on a single processor at video resolution.","PeriodicalId":325699,"journal":{"name":"International Conference on Computer Graphics, Virtual Reality, Visualisation and Interaction in Africa","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127883323","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}
