“…Haringer and Regenbrecht [31] created the PowerSpace editor that works as an extension for Microsoft PowerPoint in order to support AR authoring. Geiger et al [32] developed an AR game on top of Virtools, a VR authoring tool, extending it to support augmentation. Finally, Berry et al [33] extended the Touch Designer application to integrate sound control, network protocols and other features provided by the application with AR marker tracking.…”

This paper presents a solution for photorealistic rendering of virtual objects into dynamic real scenes. It consists of a toolkit for Augmented Reality, named RPR-SORS, which is composed of two artifacts: an API that handles various computer graphics techniques in a novel pipeline approaching illumination, reflectance model, shadowing, composition, and camera effects; and a material editor that accelerates the creation of complex photorealistic materials. An experimental application was developed with the proposed solution, where both the API and material editor were used to accomplish photorealistic effects in an application of Augmented Reality in architecture. The results obtained show that the API provides a flexible infrastructure for the photorealistic Augmented Reality pipeline, and that the material editor facilitates the creation of photorealistic materials and their use for Augmented Reality.

“…For the extension of this system there are several additional extension packs available, e. g. for physics simulation or special VRcomponents. To use augmented reality features in this system we developed a building block which encapsulates the ARToolkitPlus library [Geiger et al 2007]. Other Building Blocks can also be developed using the C++ SDK.…”

Figure 1: Different prototypes of the indoor airship made with MiReAS. AbstractVirtual prototyping has become an established design tool in complex interdisciplinary development processes using state-of-the-art virtual reality techniques. Due to numerous benefits virtual prototyping has seen increasing acceptance in recent years, especially in the development of systems that involve complex interactions between components or require the integration of newly developed hardware. Mixed reality, considered as an extension to VR, has high potential to support the development of complex systems that operate in a real world environment even further. In this paper we demonstrate that the principles of mixed reality prototyping can also be effectively applied to the development of complex systems if a structured process is defined and supported by a proper software framework. In our paper we present a system that supports an iterative approach to prototype complex dynamical systems. Using this approach allows the designer to seamlessly progress from an initial virtual prototype to the final system along the mixed reality continuum. We describe MiReAS, a mixed reality software framework that supports an iterative design evolution with arbitrary combinations of real and virtual elements. The use of the system is demonstrated by the development of interaction techniques and control strategies for an unmanned aerial vehicle.

Abstract.Haptics is the outstanding technology to provide tri-dimensional interaction within Virtual Environments (VE). Nevertheless, many software solutions are not fully prepared to support Haptics. This paper presents a user-friendly implementation of Sensable Phantom haptic interfaces onto the interactive VE authoring platform, Virtools 4.0. Haptics implementation was realized using the Haptic Library (HLAPI) from OpenHaptics toolkit 2.0 which provides highly satisfactory custom forces effects. The integration of Phantom interaction at end-user development fulfils logical VE interactive authoring under Virtools. Haptics implementation was qualitatively assessed in a manual maintenance case, a welding task, as a part of the national Finnish project, VIRVO. Manipulation enhancements provided by the integration of Phantom interaction in Virtools suggest many further improvements for more complicated industrial pilot experiments as a part of the European Commission funded project ManuVAR.
