Designing of touchless user interface is gaining popularity in various contexts. Using such interfaces, users can interact with electronic devices even when the hands are dirty or non-conductive. Also, user with partial physical disability…
Realistic Hand manipulation is a key component of immersive virtual reality (VR), yet existing methods often rely on kinematic approach or motion-capture datasets that omit crucial physical attributes such as contact forces and finger…
Navigation aids are central to immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences that involve physical locomotion. Their effectiveness depends not only on how much spatial information they provide, but also on how directly that information…
Expressive writing is an established approach for stress management. Recently, information technologies, such as smartphones, have also been explored for expressive writing. Although mobile interfaces have the potential to support various…
This study explores the use of immersive virtual reality (VR) as a control interface for agricultural robots in vineyard disease detection and treatment. Using a Unity-ROS simulation, it compares three agents: a human operator, an immersive…
Tactile feedback is generally recognized to be crucial for effective interaction with the physical world. However, state-of-the-art Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models lack the ability to interpret and use tactile signals, limiting their…
Computers today aren't just confined to laptops and desktops. Mobile gadgets like mobile phones and laptops also make use of it. However, one input device that hasn't changed in the last 50 years is the QWERTY keyboard. Users of virtual…
Target selection is a fundamental interaction in virtual reality (VR). But the act of confirming a selection, such as a button press or pinch, can disturb the tracked pose and shift the intended target, which is referred to as the…
Since the launch of Google Glass in 2014, smart glasses have mainly been designed to support micro-interactions. The ultimate goal for them to become an augmented reality interface has not yet been attained due to an encumbrance of…
In this study, we investigated gaze-based interaction methods within a virtual reality game with a visual search task with 52 participants. We compared four different interaction techniques: Selection by dwell time or confirmation of…
The paper focuses on an immersive teleoperation system that enhances operator's ability to actively perceive the robot's surroundings. A consumer-grade HTC Vive VR system was used to synchronize the operator's hand and head movements with a…
In this paper, we propose a novel touchless typing interface that makes use of an on-screen QWERTY keyboard and a smartphone camera. The keyboard was divided into nine color-coded clusters. The user moved their head toward clusters, which…
Voice Recognition (VR) facilitates a human interaction with the machine. VR may be used to replace the manual task of pushing buttons on a wireless telephone keypad. This is particularly useful when the hands of the user are busy with other…
