We introduce a novel formulation of visual privacy preservation for video foundation models that operates entirely in the latent space. While spatio-temporal features learned by foundation models have deepened general understanding of video…
Environmental understanding capability of $\textit{augmented}$ (AR) and $\textit{mixed reality}$ (MR) devices are continuously improving through advances in sensing, computer vision, and machine learning. Various AR/MR applications…
In this work we propose the combination of large interactive displays with personal head-mounted Augmented Reality (AR) for information visualization to facilitate data exploration and analysis. Even though large displays provide more…
Nowadays, Augmented Reality (AR) is available on almost all smartphones creating some exciting interaction opportunities but also challenges. For example, already after the famous AR app Pokemon GO was released in July 2016, numerous…
Mixed Reality (MR) devices require a world with always-on sensors and real-time processing applied to their outputs. We have grappled with some of the ethical concerns presented by this scenario, such as bystander privacy issues with…
Personal devices (e.g. laptops, tablets, and mobile phones) are conventional in daily life and have the ability to store users' private data. The security problems related to these appliances have become a primary concern for both users and…
Coordination of view coverage via privacy-aware smart cameras is key to a more socially responsible urban intelligence. Rather than maximizing view coverage at any cost or over relying on expensive cryptographic techniques, we address how…
As Mixed Reality (MR) devices become increasingly popular across industries, they raise significant privacy and ethical concerns due to their capacity to collect extensive data on users and their environments. This paper highlights the…
In this paper, an occlusion-capable holographic augmented-reality (AR) display is proposed, and its ability to enhance AR imagery through occlusion is demonstrated. Holographic displays can generate ideal three-dimensional (3D) virtual…
The vigorous development of the Internet has spurred exponential data growth, yet data is predominantly stored in isolated user entities, hampering its full value realization. In large-scale deployment of ``AI+industries'' such as smart…
Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have seen the emergence of smart video surveillance (SVS) in many practical applications, particularly for building safer and more secure communities in our urban environments. Cognitive…
Recent developments in hardware, computer graphics, and AI may soon enable AR/VR head-mounted displays (HMDs) to become everyday devices like smartphones and tablets. Eye trackers within HMDs provide a special opportunity for such setups as…
