Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird daher ein Erkennungs- und Tracking-Verfahren auf seine Vorteile hin untersucht. Dieses Verfahren wird schließlich in eine Robotersteuerung integriert, sodass es möglich ist, einen kleinen fahrbaren, Roboter beispielsweise durch einen Parcours zu lenken. N2 - Modern applications often utilize touchless interaction techniques and therefore offer a more intuitive interface. Thus, within the bounds of this work, a recognition and tracking algorithm will be evaluated with regard to its capabilities. Finally, this algorithm will be integrated into a remote control of a small robot, to e. g. manoeuvre it through a course.

Consequently such feedback devices are used to guide blind or visually impaired people but can also be used to support other wayfinding tasks - for instance, guiding actors in virtual studio productions. Recent effort has been made to simplify this task by integrating vibrotactile feedback into virtual studio applications. In this work we evaluate the accuracy of an improved direction signalization technique, utilizing a body-worn vibrotactile belt with a limited number of tactors, and compare it to other work. The results from our user study indicate that it is possible to signalize different directions accurately, even with a small number of tactors spaced by 90°.

Virtual sets typically use static virtual elements or animated objects with predefined behavior so that actors can practice their performance and errors can be corrected in the post production. With the demand for inexpensive live recording and interactive TV productions, virtual objects will be dynamically rendered at arbitrary positions that cannot be predicted by the actor. Perceptive aids have to be employed to support a natural interaction with these objects. In our work we study the effect of haptic feedback for a simple form of interaction. Actors are equipped with a custom built haptic belt and get vibrotactile feedback during a small navigational task (path following). We present a prototype of a wireless vibrotactile feedback device and a small framework for evaluating haptic feedback in a virtual set environment. Results from an initial pilot study indicate that vibrotactile feedback is a suitable non-visual aid for interaction that is at least comparable to audio-visual alternatives used in virtual set productions.
