Whilst babies are kept occupied by iPads, kids get lost in smartphones, and teens lock themselves into their own isolating VR world, we see the need for change. We're losing the art of interaction and conversation. In this multi-person simultaneous collaborative VR installation we demonstrate that social interaction is the key component to making VR something far more positive and lasting an experience. HOLO - DOODLE, an adaptation of Holojam created by Professor Ken Perlin and his next-level team at NYU, re-jigged by VR gurus Superbright, in which sensors are strapped to the extremities of a group of people in Samsung Gear VR Headsets, given virtual paint brushes and through the medium of art and conversation become acquainted in an entirely new way. As we fully explore the parameters of our being, our art, our gender and our humanity we face ever growing walls of oppression. VR is still relatively undefined. It disturbingly makes war games become ever more real, and as a format it extends much far further than the next progression of film. We need to look at the techonology differently, use it to bring people out of their shell, to dance like noones watching, to play out a fantasy. ItâĂŹs a movement for good, and we can change the emphasis of VR to something far more positive. Allow folk to interact without the shackles of how individuals can be pre-judged in this real world.","PeriodicalId":426114,"journal":{"name":"ACM SIGGRAPH 2017 VR Village","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117041624","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}

Prevailing interaction methods such as hand gestures and voice recognition prove awkward in XR environments, even when performing common tasks (e.g., object selection, menu navigation, and others). In contrast, an ideal interaction method would robustly and naturally translate a user's intention into both 2D and 3D environmental controls. A direct brain-computer interface (BCI) system is ideally situated to accomplish this. Neurable's technology provides a solution to maximize XR's potential, affording users real-time mental selection via dry electroencephalography (EEG).","PeriodicalId":426114,"journal":{"name":"ACM SIGGRAPH 2017 VR Village","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125959245","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}

Lytro's 6DoF playback allows the viewer to move around freely in the viewing experience, complete with parallax, view-dependent lighting, and perfect stereo in all directions no matter the orientation of the viewer's head. A Within Original, Hallelujah reimagines Leonard Cohen's most well-known song with an original a cappella composition. It is the world's first VR music experience to provide an uncompromised sense of presence with six degrees of freedom (6DoF) using Lytro Immerge. Hallelujah was created by Zach Richter, Bobby Halvorson and Eames Kolar. In Hallelujah, viewers feel a sense of intimacy and human connection with composer/performer Bobby Halvorson. For the first-time ever in virtual reality, there is real depth, character and dimension to Bobby and the live action environment due to Lytro's Light Field technology. Viewers can make eye contact with him, step forward to look closer, shift side-to-side to see around him, all with perfect stereo, perspective, and parallax. The clean and elegant environment of the piece allows this realism to set-in, deepening the connection between the viewer and Bobby as they inhabit the space together. As the experience progresses, the composition builds and envelopes the viewer in music from 360 degrees. \"Hallelujah is such a powerful song; coupled with the immersive technology from Lytro, we believe that people will feel connected to the experience in such an emotional way,\" said Zach Richter. \"Stripping the components of the piece to the essentials and using this technology creates an incredible sense of presence. It becomes real. Something impossible, like having five different versions of Bobby performing all around you and singing to you, feels normal. With virtual reality we can think about music in an entirely new way.\" Hallelujah was created using the Lytro Immerge Light Field camera, processing pipeline and playback technology. The end-to-end solution: • Represents the first live action capture system to enable Six Degrees of Freedom playback • Provides the highest quality and highest resolution • Allows for true presence: everything in the headset reacts as it should in the real world","PeriodicalId":426114,"journal":{"name":"ACM SIGGRAPH 2017 VR Village","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121962987","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}

However, effective spatial referencing and action demonstration in a remote physical environment can be challenging. We demonstrate an approach that uses Virtual Reality (VR) or Augmented Reality (AR) for the remote expert, and AR for the local user, each wearing a stereo head-worn display (HWD). Our approach allows the remote expert to create and manipulate virtual replicas of physical objects in the local environment to refer to parts of those physical objects and to indicate actions on them. This can be especially useful for parts that are occluded or difficult to access. The remote expert can demonstrate actions in 3D by manipulating virtual replicas, supported by constraints and annotations, and point in 3D to portions of virtual replicas to annotate them.","PeriodicalId":426114,"journal":{"name":"ACM SIGGRAPH 2017 VR Village","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130293945","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}

Many MR interactions are generated around a first-person Point of View (POV). In these cases, the user directs to the environment, which is digitally displayed either through a head-mounted display or a handheld computing device. One drawback of such conventional AR/MR platforms is that the experience is user-specific. Moreover, these platforms require the user to wear and/or hold an expensive device, which can be cumbersome and alter interaction techniques. We create a solution for multi-user interactions in AR/MR, where a group can share the same augmented environment with any computer generated (CG) asset and interact in a shared story sequence through a third-person POV. Our approach is to instrument the environment leaving the user unburdened of any equipment, creating a seamless walk-up-and-play experience. We demonstrate this technology in a series of vignettes featuring humanoid animals. Participants can not only see and hear these characters, they can also feel them on the bench through haptic feedback. Many of the characters also interact with users directly, either through speech or touch. In one vignette an elephant hands a participant a glowing orb. This demonstrates HCI in its simplest form: a person walks up to a computer, and the computer hands the person an object.","PeriodicalId":426114,"journal":{"name":"ACM SIGGRAPH 2017 VR Village","volume":"166 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127484594","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}
