It ensures that the non functional requirements of AR such as extensibility, configurability and modularity are handled. One of the challenge the AR application designer have to face is the problem of the integration of multiple technologies that could be provided by different component systems that do not cover the same issues. In this paper, we will see how our AR component based framework, named ARCS (Augmented Reality Component System), is intended to integrate other components from exogenous component systems and how it could be integrated into other software. At the same time, we also tackle the issues that may arise in multi-threaded environments by using a specific heuristic in order to monitor components. We also explain how we implement the networking non functional requirement using a proxy desing pattern. Then, we discuss and study the impact such genericity has on performances of our system. Finally, our approach will be exposed and validated through different examples of different sizes.","PeriodicalId":381228,"journal":{"name":"2012 5th Workshop on Software Engineering and Architectures for Realtime Interactive Systems (SEARIS)","volume":"218 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121621676","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}

This plug-in allows users to create new animations and to modify existing ones by interacting intuitively within Virtual Environments. The aim of our system is to enable people without computer animation background to design objects' motions and animations through simplified and immersive recording, editing and modification processes. Indeed, ICEA uses the immersive authoring principles, and as such, it offers an alternative to classic 3D animation solutions: users have only to perform actions in the virtual environment using any available interfaces to create animations. ICEA's core is coded in Haskell on top of the FRVR framework. It builds on a functional reactive paradigm, thus allowing easy scaling of the plug-in usage. ICEA is a fully C++ compatible plug-in supporting most Virtual Reality applications. To validate the concept ICEA, we implemented and tested it on a “sale's man-like” problem: users were asked to generate (e.g. create, play, and edit) the movement of a character on what they considered the shortest path linking predetermined points. Our preliminary results show that users familiarize quickly with immersive paths manipulation.","PeriodicalId":381228,"journal":{"name":"2012 5th Workshop on Software Engineering and Architectures for Realtime Interactive Systems (SEARIS)","volume":"107 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132632644","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}

These applications are built upon Virtual Environments (VEs) in which artificial agents act autonomously while interacting in realtime with users. Semantic modelling of a VR environment makes it possible the knowledge-driven access from the description of VEs that simplifies the development of VR applications. It eases the development of these types of applications. Semantic modelling should provide a consistent representation of the following aspects: 1) The simulated world, its structure and the behavior of its entities, 2) Interactions and tasks, that users and agents can perform in the environment, 3) Knowledge items, that autonomous agents can use for decision-making or for communication with users. This paper presents MASCARET, a model-based approach, for the design of semantic VR environments. This approach is based on the Unified Modeling Language (UML). In this approach, UML is used to provide a knowledge-driven access to the semantic contents of the VE and not for code generation, as in classical software development process. Interests of a UML-based approach are that its metamodel covers different views of the semantic modelling: ontology, structure, behaviors, interactions, activities. It is also an extensible language that can be specialized to provide formal operational semantics. We also present how MASCARET can be used to develop content-rich interactive applications that can be deployed over various VR platforms. Finally, we discuss the benefits of such a metamodel-based approach and show how the multi-layer semantic model can be used in different VR applications, in which adaptive behaviors of artificial agents acting within complex environments have to be simulated.","PeriodicalId":381228,"journal":{"name":"2012 5th Workshop on Software Engineering and Architectures for Realtime Interactive Systems (SEARIS)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128509722","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 realism can be measured in two aspects. One is behavioral realism, or how real the characters act and respond to the commands and environments. The other aspect is visual realism. Many efforts have been directed at animating human characters as well as other animal characters in applications such as interactive computer games. However, more research is still needed for realistic animation of animal characters due to the vast variety of animal species and different application purposes. In some of the environments for which security personnel are being trained, animals, such as dogs, are part of the training programs. So we need to include realistic behavior and visual representations of animal characters in our training applications. This study is focused on animal behavior and animation for VR applications. A simple implementation of a real-time animal animation method that is configurable is proposed to make it easy for user interaction. Synthetic animal characters are included in the system so that their behavior can be programmed and controlled digitally. A two-stage state machine is used in the system. The top-level state machine controls the animal behavior. The secondary state machine controls animation. Animation blending and procedural control are used to make the animation smooth.","PeriodicalId":381228,"journal":{"name":"2012 5th Workshop on Software Engineering and Architectures for Realtime Interactive Systems (SEARIS)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122840485","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}

This paper describes VR JuggLua, a high-level virtual reality application framework based on combining Lua, a dynamic, interpreted language designed for embedding and extension, with VR Juggler and OpenSceneGraph. This work allows fully-featured immersive applications to be written entirely in Lua, and also supports the embedding of the Lua engine in C++ applications. Like native C++ VR Juggler applications, VR JuggLua-based applications run successfully on systems ranging from a single desktop machine to a 49-node cluster. The osgLua introspection-based bindings facilitate scenegraph manipulation from Lua code, while bindings created using the Luabind template meta-programming library connect VR Juggler functionality. A thread-safe run buffer allows new Lua code to be passed to the interpreter during run time, supporting interactive creation of scene-graph structures. It has been successfully used in an immersive application implementing two different navigation techniques entirely in Lua and a physically-based virtual assembly simulation where C++ code handles physics computations and Lua code handles all display and configuration.","PeriodicalId":381228,"journal":{"name":"2012 5th Workshop on Software Engineering and Architectures for Realtime Interactive Systems (SEARIS)","volume":"205 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131950909","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}
