报告题目：Enhancing Object Selection and Manipulation for Complex Virtual Reality Interaction

报告摘要：

Existing object selection and manipulation techniques in VR are primarily based on mid-air interaction with virtual hands or ray pointers. They are natural and intuitive but often criticized for being imprecise, inefficient, and cumbersome. They also have limited expressiveness if they simply replicate how we interact with objects in physical reality. Therefore, these techniques are insufficient for complex VR interaction scenarios that contain small, faraway, and occluded targets or require precise, versatile, and prolonged operations. In this talk, I will present interaction techniques and predictive models for effective and efficient VR interactions.

报告题目：Location-Aware Adaptation of Augmented Reality Narratives

报告摘要：

The recent popularity of augmented reality (AR) devices has enabled players to participate in interactive narratives through virtual events and characters populated in a real-world environment, where different actions may lead to different story branches. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to adapt narratives to real spaces for AR experiences. Our optimization-based approach automatically assigns contextually compatible locations to story events, synthesizing a navigation graph to guide players through different story branches while considering their walking experiences. We validated the effectiveness of our approach for adapting AR narratives to different scenes through experiments and user studies.
