“…Its effectiveness depends on an appropriate coverage of common VR concepts, but also on domaindependent extensions, which we must support at the implementation level (see Section 4.1). For creating the concept list, we analysed the literature on model-based approaches for VR development (e.g., [20]), and the categorisation used by 3D models and assets repository, such as SketchFab, TurboSquid, Unity Asset Store etc. We briefly introduce the main concepts in this section, and we provide a more detailed description in Appendix A.…”

This paper proposes a solution for supporting end users in configuring Virtual Reality environments by exploiting reusable templates created by experts. We identify the roles participating in the environment development and the means for delegating part of the behaviour definition to the end users. We focus in particular on enabling end users to define the environment behaviour. The solution exploits a taxonomy defining common virtual objects having high-level actions for specifying event-condition-action rules readable as natural language sentences. End users exploit such actions to define the environment behaviour. We report on a proof-of-concept implementation of the proposed approach, on its validation through two different case studies (virtual shop and museum), and on evaluating the approach with expert users.

“…2D model-based user interface development can be extended to 3D to handle plasticity [8]. User and hardware adaptations are integrated into the user interface development process with model transformations rules described with UsiXML, but the solution focuses on the creation of adaptable 3D widgets and the final user interface is generated as a VRML or X3D file.…”

The goal of plasticity is to ensure usability continuity whatever the context of use. This context must be modeled into the system and possibly taken into account to adapt the final application. The difficulty to handle plasticity for 3D applications comes from the lack of solutions for developers and designers to model and take these constraints into account. This paper introduces new models designed to deal with plasticity for Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). These models are implemented in a software solution: 3DPlasticToolkit. It aims to provide a solution for developing 3D applications that can automatically fit any context of use. This context of use includes a set of 3D hardware and environmental constraints, such as user preferences and available interaction devices. 3DPlasticToolkit includes tools for modeling this context and for creating application components independently from it. We propose an adaptation engine based on a scoring algorithm to dynamically create the most suited 3D user interfaces according to the context of use at runtime. We use a furniture planning scenario to show how these adaptations can impact interactions and content presentation.

“…Indeed, considering recasting is needed to handle redistribution, as the input and output capacities may vary from a platform to another. Some solutions exist for the creation of reconfigurable 3D applications [14] or 3D adaptive ones [23], and some recent approaches tend to bring plasticity to 3D with a focus on recasting [16] [21]. A complete survey of plasticity for 3D user interfaces (3DUI)'s is given in [20].…”

We propose D3PART (Dynamic 3D Plastic And Redistribuable Technology), a model to handle redistribution for 3D user interfaces. Redistribution consists in changing the components distribution of an interactive system across different dimensions such as, platform, display and user. Our work is based on previous models for the creation of 3D plastic user interfaces, interactive systems that can handle the context of use modifications while preserving usability. In our previous work, we proposed a task model, a device model and an application component model for the creation of plastic user interfaces that handle the 3D specificities. With D3PART, we extend these models in order to include redistribution capabilities. The final solution lets developers create applications where 3D content and tasks can be automatically redistributed across the different dimensions at runtime. The proposed redistribution process is based on a client-server architecture with a meta-user interface to control the redistri
