报告题目:虚拟现实环境中用户视觉注意的分析与预测

报告摘要:

用户在虚拟现实环境中的视觉注意具有重大的意义,可以被应用到很多方面,包括虚拟现实内容设计、注视引导、注视点渲染、以及基于眼动的交互。本报告以虚拟现实环境中用户视觉注意的分析与预测为研究目标,重点针对静态虚拟场景、动态虚拟场景、以及任务驱动虚拟场景展开了深入的研究,揭示了用户的眼睛注视位置与其头部运动、场景内容、动态物体、以及任务相关物体之间的相关性,并提出了基于深度学习的算法来对用户的注视位置进行预测。

讲者简介:

报告题目:Gaze-Supported 3D Object Manipulation in Virtual Reality

报告摘要:

In this talk, I will present a paper that investigates integration, coordination, and transition strategies of gaze and hand input for 3D object manipulation in VR. Specifically, our work aims to understand whether incorporating gaze input can benefit VR object manipulation tasks, and how it should be combined with hand input for improved usability and efficiency. I will demonstrate four gaze-supported techniques that leverage different combination strategies for object manipulation. For example, I will show a technique called ImplicitGaze which allows the transition between gaze and hand input to happen without any trigger mechanism like button pressing. Next, I will introduce the results from two user evaluation studies of those techniques. I will further offer insights regarding combination strategies of gaze and hand input, and present implications that can help guide the design of future VR systems that incorporate gaze input for 3D object manipulation.

报告题目:3D-Kernel Foveated Rendering for Light Fields

报告摘要:

Light fields capture both the spatial and angular rays, thus enabling free-viewpoint rendering and custom selection of the focal plane. Scientists can interactively explore pre-recorded microscopic light fields of organs, microbes, and neurons using virtual reality headsets. However, rendering high-resolution light fields at interactive frame rates requires a very high rate of texture sampling, which is challenging as the resolutions of light fields and displays continue to increase. In this article, we present an efficient algorithm to visualize 4D light fields with 3D-kernel foveated rendering (3D-KFR). The 3D-KFR scheme coupled with eye-tracking has the potential to accelerate the rendering of 4D depth-cued light fields dramatically. We have developed a perceptual model for foveated light fields by extending the KFR for the rendering of 3D meshes. On datasets of high-resolution microscopic light fields, we observe 3:47x-7:28x speedup in light field rendering with minimal perceptual loss of detail. We envision that 3D-KFR will reconcile the mutually conflicting goals of visual fidelity and rendering speed for interactive visualization of light fields.
