From finger animation to full-body embodiment of avatars with different morphologies and proportions

VR (Virtual Reality) is a real-time simulation that creates the subjective illusion of being in a virtual world. This thesis explores how integrating the user's body and fingers can be achieved and beneficial for the user to experience VR. At the advent of ...

A Wearable Smart Glove and Its Application of Pose and Gesture Detection to Sign Language Classification

Josephine Anna Eleanor Hughes

Advances in soft sensors coupled with machine learning are enabling increasingly capable wearable systems. Since hand motion in particular can convey useful information for developing intuitive interfaces, glove-based systems can have a significant impact ...

On the Importance of Providing a Tangible Haptic Response for Training Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in Virtual Reality

Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Mathias Guy Delahaye

The current approach to train Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is to employ a mannequin device replicating the physical properties of a real human head and torso. This aims to ensure a correct transfer of the cardiac massage location, amplitude and freq ...

HapTwist: Creating Interactive Haptic Proxies in Virtual Reality Using Low-cost Twistable Artefacts

Yi-Shiun Wu

In this paper, we present a series of studies on using Rubik's Twist, a type of low-cost twistable artefact, to create haptic proxies for various hand-graspable VR objects. Our pilot studies validated the feasibility and effectiveness of Rubik's-Twist-base ...

Contactless Respiration Monitoring in Real-Time via a Video Camera

Alia Lemkaddem, Martin Bertschinger, Olivier Grossenbacher

Until today, vital signs monitoring in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) is based on wired sensors, known to cause discomfort and false alarms. In view of overcoming such issues we investigate a contactless method for respiration monitoring by means of ...

Multimodal Haptic Device, System, and Method of Using the Same

Giulio Rognini, Simon Gallo, Tobias Lukas Rolf Bützer

A multimodal haptic device operating as a closed-loop system, the device including a pipeline configured to allow a closed-loop flow of a fluid medium, a manifold operatively connected to the pipeline, the manifold having a pump and a valve to control and ...

Soft flexion sensors integrating strechable metal conductors on a silicone substrate for smart glove applications

Stéphanie Lacour, Hadrien Olivier Michaud, Joan Teixidor

We design and implement a sensory skin that monitors in real time finger flexure (three sensors per finger) of a user's hand. Compared to current technologies, the electronic skin is made entirely of stretchable materials integrating silicone rubber, low r ...

A flexible multimodal tactile display for delivering shape and material information

Hannes Bleuler, Simon Gallo

The growing complexity of telemanipulation tasks calls for increased realism and intuitiveness of the interaction between the user and the master control. Humans perceive multiple haptic features of an object such as its stiffness, temperature, and shape, ...

Towards comprehensive capture of human grasping and manipulation skills

Aude Billard, Sahar El Khoury, Ravin Luis De Souza, José Santos-Victor

Grasping plays a central role in our daily life. To interact with objects surrounding them, people use a large diversity of hand configurations in combination with forces ranging from the small ones involved in manipulating a pen for writing, to larger for ...

Full-body performance animation with Sequential Inverse Kinematics

Ronan Boulic, Manuel Peinado

In this paper, we present an analytic-iterative Inverse Kinematics (IK) method, called Sequential lK (SIK), that reconstructs 3D human full-body movements in real time. The input data for the reconstruction is the least possible (i.e., the positions of wri ...

Two-arm haptic force-feedbacked aid for the shoulder and elbow telerehabilitation

Daniel Thalmann, Patrick Salamin, Frédéric Vexo

In this paper, we present a telerehabilitation system aiming to help the physiotherapists for the shoulder and elbow treatment. It is based on a two-arm haptic force feedback to avoid excessive efforts and discomfort with the spinal column. This system, re ...
