Hologram Prototype

We're working on the creation of a hologram using transparent glass and a computer monitor to display a 3D image. Check the first video of the prototype here: 3D Hologram.

This project is based on the following tutorial: Turn your Smartphone into a 3D Hologram.

Pit Demo with Augmented Reality

We're working to improve our Pit Demo using Augmented Virtuality to increase the realism of the experience.

The new version will allow users to hear the wooden planks cracking under their feet, hear the wind howling and see their own legs as they walk on the beams.

Haptic Glove and Pain Transference

Haptic Glove made with vibrators and Arduino for incrasing Presence in Virtual Environments.

We will make a pain-transference VR scene in which we expect the virtual pain to transfer to a person. The scene will feature a dangerous object touching a person's hand at the same time that the Haptic Glove starts vibrating.

Virtual Window (Parallax)

Demonstration in a VE of the parallax effect: when you move your head the objects closer to you move faster than the objects that are far away.

I will track the person's head and show a VR world in a TV. As the scene is rendered from the viewer's perspective it will look as the TV is actually a window into another world. Om, and has zombies.

I got the idea from this guy some years ago: Head Tracking for Desktop VR Displays using the WiiRemote.

Interactive application for the CS department

We're designing an application for the Computer Science department at UWYO. The idea is to offer all kinds of information from our department using an interactive application.

3DIA Virtual Character

We'll work in the design and creation of a virtual character for the 3DiA Research Laboratory. The goal of this project is have a virtual character in the lab that is able to introduce our work to other people and explain what we do in here.
