In this paper we propose an integrated immersive augmented reality solution for a software tool supporting spacecraft design and verification. The spacecraft design process relies on expertise in many domains, such as thermal and structural engineering. The various subsystems of a spacecraft are highly interdependent and have differing requirements and constraints. In this context, interactive visualizations play an important role in making expert knowledge accessible. Recent immersive display technologies offer new ways of presenting and interacting with computer-generated content. Possibilities and challenges for spacecraft configuration employing these technologies are explored and discussed. A user interface design for an application using the Microsoft HoloLens is proposed. To this end, techniques for selecting a spacecraft component and manipulating its position and orientation in 3D space are developed and evaluated. Thus, advantages and limitations of this approach to spacecraft configuration are revealed and discussed.
Based on experience in teaching programming, we developed the integrated development environment (IDE) 5Code especially to support beginners. As a first step, a simple, understandable formula was developed how to advance from the problem to the program in 5 operative steps:
read it → get it → think it → note it → code it.
In order to reduce the cognitive load of the learners effectively, 5Code was designed such that all 5 steps are permanently presented, accessible and executable. Thus, learners are provided with the entire programming context from presentation of the task via own notes and annotations to the code area. Learners can mark and annotate any part of the given task’s text; these annotations can be edited as notes with own comments. Furthermore, the notes can be dragged into the code area, where they are shown as comments in the coding language. Any modifications in the comments are synchronized between notes and code. 5Code is implemented as a web-application. It is used in university introductory courses on object oriented programming.
The discipline of engineering secure software and services brings together researchers and practitioners from software, services, and security engineering. This interdisciplinary community is fairly new, it is still not well integrated and is therefore confronted with differing perspectives, processes, methods, tools, vocabularies, and standards. We present a Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) to overcome the aforementioned problems. We capture use cases from research and practice to derive requirements for the CBK. Our CBK collects, integrates, and structures knowledge from the different disciplines based on an ontology that allows one to semantically enrich content to be able to query the CBK. The CBK heavily relies on user participation, making use of the Semantic MediaWiki as a platform to support collaborative writing. The ontology is complemented by a conceptual framework, consisting of concepts to structure the knowledge and to provide access to it, and a means to build a common terminology. We also present organizational factors covering dissemination and quality assurance.
This paper presents a conceptual framework for security engineering, with a strong focus on security requirements elicitation and analysis. This conceptual framework establishes a clear-cut vocabulary and makes explicit the interrelations between the different concepts and notions used in security engineering. Further, we apply our conceptual framework to compare and evaluate current security requirements engineering approaches, such as the Common Criteria, Secure Tropos, SREP, MSRA, as well as methods based on UML and problem frames. We review these methods and assess them according to different criteria, such as the general approach and scope of the method, its validation, and quality assurance capabilities. Finally, we discuss how these methods are related to the conceptual framework and to one another.
In today’s market research mechanisms multi modal technologies are significant tools to perform flexible and price efficient studies for not only consumer products but also consumer goods. Current appraisal mechanisms in combination with applied computer graphics can improve the assessment of a product’s launch in the very early design phase or an innovation process. The combination of online questionnaires, Virtual Reality (VR) applications and a database management system offers a powerful tool to let a consumer judge products as well as innovated goods even without having produced a single article. In this paper we present an approach of consumer good studies consisting of common as well as interactive VR product presentations and online questionnaires bases on a bidirectional database management solution to configure and manage numerous studies, virtual sets, goods and participants in an effective way to support the estimation of the received data. Non-programmers can create their test environment including a VR scenario very quickly without any effort. Within the extensive knowledge of consumer goods, marketing instruments can be defined to shorten and improve the rollout process in the early product stages.
A filtering model for efficient rendering of the spatial image of an occluded virtual sound source
(1999)
Rendering realistic spatial sound imagery for complex virtual environments must take into account the effects of obstructions such as reflectors and occluders. It is relatively well understood how to calculate the acoustical consequence that would be observed at a given observation point when an acoustically opaque object occludes a sound source. But the interference patterns generated by occluders of various geometries and orientations relative to the virtual source and receiver are computationally intense if accurate results are required. In many applications, however, it is sufficient to create a spatial image that is recognizable by the human listener as the sound of an occluded source. In the interest of improving audio rendering efficiency, a simplified filtering model was developed and its audio output submitted to psychophysical evaluation. Two perceptually salient components of occluder acoustics were identified that could be directly related to the geometry and orientation of a simple occluder. Actual occluder impulse responses measured in an anechoic chamber resembled the responses of a model incorporating only a variable duration delay line and a low-pass filter with variable cutoff frequency.

Problem frames are patterns for analyzing, structuring, and characterizing software development problems. This paper presents a formal metamodel for problem frames expressed in UML class diagrams and using the formal specification notation OCL. That metamodel clarifies the nature of the different syntactical elements of problem frames, as well as the relations between them. It provides a framework for syntactical analysis and semantic validation of newly defined problem frames, and it prepares the ground for tool support for the problem frame approach.
This article describes the possibilities and problems that occur using the SteamVR tracking 2.0 system as a camera tracking system in a virtual studio and explains an approach for implementation and calibration within a professional studio environment. The tracking system allows for cost effective deployment. Relevant application fields are also mixed reality recording and streaming of AR and VR experiences.
Acquiring human motion data from video images plays an important role in the field of computer vision. Ground truth tracking systems require markers to create high quality motion data. But in many applications it is desired to work without markers. In recent years affordable hardware for markerless tracking systems was made available at a consumer level. Efficient depth camera systems based on Time-of-Flight sensors and structured light systems have made it possible to record motion data in real time. However, the gap between the quality of marker-based and markerless systems is high. The error sources of a markerless motion tracking pipeline are discussed and a model-based filter is proposed, which adapts depending on spatial location. The proposed method is then proven to be more robust and accurate than the unfiltered data stream and can be used to visually enhance the presence of an actor within a virtual environment in live broadcast productions.
We present a pattern system/or security requirements engineering, consisting of security problem frames and concretized security problem frames. These are special kinds of problem frames that serve to structure, characterize, analyze, and finally solve software development problems in the area of software and system security. We equip each frame with formal preconditions and postconditions. The analysis of these conditions results in a pattern system that explicitly shows the dependencies between the different frames. Moreover, we indicate related frames, which are commonly used together with the considered frame. Hence, our approach helps security engineers to avoid omissions and to cover all security requirements that are relevant for a given problem.
The authors present a security engineering process based on security problem frames and concretized security problem frames. Both kinds of frames constitute patterns for analyzing security problems and associated solution approaches. They are arranged in a pattern system that makes dependencies between them explicit. The authors describe step-by-step how the pattern system can be used to analyze a given security problem and how solution approaches can be found. Afterwards, the security problems and the solution approaches are formally modeled in detail. The formal models serve to prove that the solution approaches are correct solutions to the security problems. Furthermore, the formal models of the solution approaches constitute a formal specification of the software to be developed. Then, the specification is implemented by generic security components and generic security architectures, which constitute architectural patterns. Finally, the generic security components and the generic security architecture that composes them are refined and the result is a secure software product built from existing and/or tailor-made security components.
The Common Lisp Interface Manager (CLIM) is used to develop graphical user interfaces for Lisp-basedapplications. With the prototype of the CLIM interface Builder (CLIB) the programmer can generate code for CLIM interactively. The developing process will be fast and less prone to errors. With this new tool, the interactive rapid prototyping reduces costs of a specification phase. Here we present the concept and first results of the prototype of CLIB.

In a virtual reality environment, users are immersed in a scene with objects which might produce sound. The responsibility of a VR environment is to present these objects, but a practical system has only limited resources, including spatialization channels (mixels), MIDI/audio channels, and processing power. A sound spatialization resource manager, introduced in this thesis, controls sound resources and optimizes fidelity (presence) under given conditions, using a priority scheme based on psychoacoustics. Objects which are spatially close together can be coalesced by a novel clustering algorithm, which considers listener localization errors. Application programmers and VR scene designers are freed from the burden of assigning mixels and predicting sound source locations. The framework includes an abstract interface for sound spatialization backends, an API for the VR environments, and multimedia authoring tools.
A Sound Spatialization Server for a Speaker Array as an Integrated Part of a Virtual Environment
(1998)
Spatial sound plays an important role in virtual reality environments, allowing orientation in space, giving a feeling of space, focusing the user on events in the scene, and substituting missing feedback cues (e.g., force feedback). The sound spatialization framework of the University of Aizu, which supports number of spatialization backends, has been extended to include a sound spatialization server for a multichannel loudspeaker array (Pioneer Sound Field Control System). Our goal is that the spatialization server allows easy integration into virtual environments. Modeling of distance cues, which are essential for full immersion, is discussed. Furthermore, the integration of this prototype into different applications allowed us to reveal the advantages and problems of spatial sound for virtual reality environments.
We give an enumeration of possible problem frames, based on domain characteristics, and comment on the usefulness of the obtained frames. In particular, we investigate problem domains and their characteristics in detail. This leads to fine-grained criteria for describing problem domains. As a result, we identify a new type of problem domain and come up with integrity conditions for developing useful problem frames. Taking a complete enumeration of possible problem frames (with at most three problem domains, of which only one is constrained) as a basis, we find 8 new problem frames, 7 of which we consider as useful in practical software development.
The PSFC, or Pioneer Sound Field Controller, is a DSP-driven hemispherical loudspeaker array, installed at the University of Aizu Multimedia Center. The PSFC features realtime manipulation of the primary components of sound spatialization for each of two audio sources located in a virtual environment, including the content (apparent direction and distance) and context (room characteristics: reverberation level, room size and liveness). In an alternate mode, it can also direct the destination of the two separate input signals across 14 loudspeakers, manipulating the direction of the virtual sound sources with no control over apparent distance other than that afforded by source loudness (including no simulated environmental reflections or reverberation). The PSFC speaker dome is about 10 m in diameter, accommodating about fifty simultaneous users, including about twenty users comfortably standing or sitting near its ``sweet spot,'' the area in which the illusions of sound spatialization are most vivid. Collocated with a large screen rear-projection stereographic display, the PSFC is intended for advanced multimedia and virtual reality applications.
Agile Lernsettings zur Entwicklung der digital literacy – Perspektiven für die Hochschullehre
(2018)
Die Buzzwords Agilität und Digitalisierung sind in aller Munde. Durch den damit verbundenen digitalen Wandel benötigt der Arbeitsmarkt Personal mit hoher Digitalkompetenz, und zwar über alle Branchen und Berufsprofile hinweg. Doch wie lässt sich das erreichen? Welchen Part können und sollten Hochschulen in der Entwicklung der digital literacy übernehmen? Anhand konkreter Beispiele aus der Lehrpraxis zeigt der Vortrag auf, wie agile Konzepte und digitale Medien in neuen Lernsettings zusammenwirken können, um die Studierenden besser auf eine zunehmend digitalisierte Lebens- und Arbeitswelt vorzubereiten.
Videomitschnitt der Vorlesung ist verfügbar. Siehe related URL.
Das Buzzword Agilität ist in aller Munde und wird häufig im Zusammenhang mit Projektmanagement oder Softwareentwicklung genannt. Auch die Startup-Szene macht sich agile Konzepte intensiv zu eigen. Aber Agilität in der Hochschullehre? Im Agilen Manifest aus dem Jahre 2001 sind - auch jenseits der Technik - wichtige Werte und Prinzipien, wie z.B. Selbstorganisation, Transparenz, Fokussierung und Kommunikation auf Augenhöhe beschrieben. Im Vortrag wird es darum gehen, ob und wie sich agile Konzepte, Methoden und Werkzeuge auf die Lehre übertragen lassen, um dadurch vielleicht wendiger und individueller auf aktuelle Lernbedarfe reagieren zu können. Darüber hinaus wird anhand konkreter Beispiele aus der Lehrpraxis aufgezeigt, wie der Einsatz digitaler, agiler Werkzeuge Studierende besser auf die sogenannten „21st Century Skills“ vorbereiten und gleichzeitig digital kompetenter machen kann.
Im anschließenden Praxisworkshop mit dem Titel "Digital Learning Blends für agile Lernsettings" werden beispielhaft einige digitale Tools des vorangegangenen Vortrages vorgestellt, die in agilen Lernsettings eine wichtige Rolle einnehmen können.
Agilität, Digital Literacy und 4C's – Bausteine innovativer Lernsettings für das 21. Jahrhundert?
(2019)
Agilität ist in aller Munde und wird sehr häufig im Zusammenhang mit Projektmanagement oder Softwareentwicklung genannt. Auch die Startup-Szene macht sich agile Konzepte intensiv zu eigen. Aber Agilität in der Hochschullehre? In dieser Keynote wird die Frage behandelt, ob und wie sich agile Werte, Prinzipien, Methoden und Tools in der Hochschullehre anwenden lassen, um wendiger und individueller auf aktuelle Lernbedarfe reagieren zu können und vielleicht sogar effizienter zu lehren. Darüber hinaus wird anhand konkreter Beispiele aus der Lehrpraxis aufgezeigt, wie der Einsatz digitaler und agiler Werkzeuge Studierende besser auf die sogenannten „21st Century Skills“ (auch: 4C's) vorbereiten und dabei gleichzeitig digital kompetenter machen kann.

Considering legal aspects during software development is a challenging problem, due to the cross-disciplinary expertise required. The problem is even more complex for cloud computing systems, because of the international distribution, huge amounts of processed data, and a large number of stakeholders that own or process the data. Approaches exist to deal with parts of the problem, but they are isolated from each other. We present an integrated method for elicitation of legal requirements. A cloud computing online banking scenario illustrates the application of our methods. The running example deals with the problem of storing personal information in the cloud and based upon the BDSG (German Federal Data Protection Act). We describe the structure of the online banking cloud system using an existing pattern-based approach. The elicited information is further refined and processed into functional requirements for software development. Moreover, our method covers the analysis of security-relevant concepts such as assets and attackers particularly with regard to laws. The requirements artifacts then serve as inputs for existing patterns for the identification of laws relevant for the online banking cloud system. Finally, our method helps to systematically derive functional as well as security requirements that realize the previously identified laws.
We present a process to develop secure software with an extensive pattern-based security requirements engineering phase. It supports identifying and analyzing conflicts between different security requirements. In the design phase, we proceed by selecting security software components that achieve security requirements. The process enables software developers to systematically identify, analyze, and finally realize security requirements using security software components. We illustrate our approach by a lawyer agency software example.
Mobile live video streaming is becoming an increasingly popular form of interaction both in social media and remote collaboration scenarios. However, in most cases the streamed video does not take mobile devices' spatial data into account (e.g., the viewers do not know the spatial orientation of a streamer), or use such data only in specific scenarios (e.g., to navigate around a spherical video stream).
CAD/CAM techniques are used increasingly in dentistry for design and fabrication of teeth restorations. An important issue is preserving occlusal contacts of teeth after restoration. Traditional techniques based on the use of casts with mechanical articulators require manual adjustment of occlusal surface, which becomes impractical when hard restoration materials like porcelain are used; they are also time and labor consuming. Most existing computer systems ignore completely such an articulation check, or perform the check at the level of a tooth and its immediate neighbors. We present a new mathematical model and a related user interface for global articulation simulation, developed for the Intelligent Dental Care System project. The aim of the simulation is elimination of the use of mechanical articulators and manual adjustment in the process of designing dental restorations and articulation diagnostic. The mathematical model is based upon differential topological modeling of the jawbs considered as a mechanical system. The user interface exploits metaphors that are familiar to dentists from everyday practice. A new input device designed specifically for use with articulation simulation is proposed.
Musicians and music professionals are often considered to be expert listeners for listening tests on room acoustics. However, these tests often target acoustic parameters other than those typically relevant in music such as pitch, rhythm, amplitude, or timbre. To assess the expertise in perceiving and understanding room acoustical phenomena, a listening test battery was constructed to measure the perceptual sensitivity and cognitive abilities in the identification of rooms with different reverberation times and different spectral envelopes. Performance in these tests was related to data from the Goldsmiths Musical Sophistication Index, self-reported previous experience in music recording and acoustics, and academic knowledge on acoustics. The data from 102 participants show that sensory and cognitive abilities are both correlated significantly with musical training, analytic listening skills, recording experience, and academic knowledge on acoustics, whereas general interest in and engagement with music do not show any significant correlations. The regression models, using only significantly correlated criteria of musicality and professional expertise, explain only small to moderate amounts (11%–28%) of the variance in the “room acoustic listening expertise” across the different tasks of the battery. Thus, the results suggest that the traditional criteria for selecting expert listeners in room acoustics are only weak predictors of their actual performances.

Augmented reality for supporting manual non-destructive ultrasonic testing of metal pipes and plates
(2018)
We describe an application of augmented reality technology for non-destructive testing of products in the metal-industry. The prototype is created with hard- and software, that is usually employed in the gaming industry, and delivers positions for creating ultra- sonic material scans (C-scans). Using a stereo camera in combination with an hmd enables realtime visualisation of the probes path, as well as the setting of virtual markers on the specimen. As a part of the implementation the downhill simplex optimization algorithm is implemented to fit the specimen to a cloud of recorded surface points. The accuracy is statistically tested and evaluated with the result, that the tracking system is accurate up to ca. 1-2 millimeters in well set-up conditions. This paper is of interest not only for research institutes of the metal-industry, but also for any areas of work, in which the enhancement with augmented reality is possible and a precise tracking is necessary.
Multi-user virtual reality is transforming towards a social activity that is no longer only used by remote users, but also in large-scale location-based experiences. Usage of realtime-tracked avatars in co-located business-oriented applications with a ”guide-user-scenario” is examined for user-related factors of Spatial Presence, Social Presence, User Experience and Task Load. A user study was conducted in order to compare both techniques of a realtime-tracked avatar and a non-visualised guide. Results reveal that the avatar-guide enhanced and stimulated communicative processes while facilitating interaction possibilities and creating a higher sense of mental immersion for users and engagement.
A mobile phone the size of a candy bar offers dozens of complex functions, a masterpiece of engineering. Unfortunately, the more functions are available, the less they are accessible to the average user. The design of the user interface suffers from a lack of suitability for the tasks, does not conform to user expectations and a suboptimal self-descriptiveness. The usability of modern mobile phones was tested in a broad survey with over 1300 participants. An internet based simulation offered tasks and an online evaluation. It could be pointed out that mobile phones are not only hard to access for novices but also those who consider themselves experts have difficulties when confronted with unknown functions or another brand of phone. Approaches to increase the usability are discussed.
Virtual sets have evolved from computer-generated, prerendered 2D backgrounds to realtime, responsive 3D computer graphics and are nowadays standard repertoire of broadcasting divisions. The graphics, which are combined with real video feed becoming moresophisticated, real looking and more responsive. We will look at the recent developments and suggest further developments like integration of spatial audio into the studio production and generating interactive media streams. Educational institutes recognize the demands of the rising media industry and established new courses on media technology like the Duesseldorf University of Applied Sciences.

Mit der Initiative Digital Peer Publishing existiert eine Infrastruktur für das Publizieren in elektronischen Zeitschriften. Dieses Publikationsformat erlaubt neben einem schnellen Wissenstransfer eine umfassende Repräsentation wissenschaftlicher Ergebnisse. Das Journal of Virtual Reality and Broadcasting als Teil dieser Initiative zeigt am Beispiel des elektronischen Publikationsprozesses den Stand der Wissensvernetzung in seiner Community, sowie aktuelle Entwicklungen um die Erweiterung innovativer Funktionen.
Classification of Beyond-Reality Interaction Techniques in Spatial Human-Computer Interaction
(2018)
Cliffhanger-VR
(2018)
In order to improve the interactivity between users and computers, recent technologies focus on incorporating gesture recognition into interactive systems. The aim of this article is to evaluate the effectiveness of using a Myo control armband and the Kinect 2 for recognition of gestures in order to interact with virtual objects in a weather report scenario. The Myo armband has an inertial measurement unit and is able to read electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles, which can be recognized as gestures, which are trained by machine learning. A Kinect sensor was used to build up a dataset which contains motion recordings of 8 different gestures and was also build up by a gesture training machine learning algorithm. Both input methods, the Kinect 2 and the Myo armband, were evaluated with the same interaction patterns in a user study, which allows a direct comparison and reveals benefits and limits of each technique.
The healthcare sector's digital transformation necessitates the involvement of stakeholders through participation and co-creation processes. This study aims to investigate the understanding and implementation of participation and co-creation in the development of hybrid interaction technologies in healthcare. Eight interdisciplinary research projects were examined through semi-structured group interviews with 49 participants from academia, industry, and the application field. The interviews focused on participants' perspectives on project goals, user groups, access to the field, methods of participation and co-creation, and user motivation. The results highlight the diverse understandings of participation and co-creation, with some perceiving them as research-driven and others as already embedded in user- centered design. The projects emphasized user needs but often excluded stakeholders from collaborative decision-making. Challenges in achieving continuous involvement and co-decision were acknowledged. The findings underscore the need for reflexive practice and evaluation of participation and co-creation throughout the development process, as well as further research on participation across projects. By addressing these challenges and embracing participatory approaches, digital health applications can better address ethical concerns, build trust, and increase acceptance and adoption in the healthcare sector.
Die Digitalisierung kommt – auch in der Hochschullehre. Daran besteht kein Zweifel. Die Frage ist nur: Wann, wo und wie die deutsche Hochschullandschaft dem unaufhaltsamen Trend begegnen wird, um sowohl im nationalen wie auch internationalen Vergleich attraktiv und wettbewerbsfähig zu bleiben. Eine Mammutaufgabe, zu deren erfolgreicher Bewältigung viele verschiedene „Stellschrauben“ gedreht werden müssen. Welche das sind, wer sie betätigen muss und wohin die Reise letztendlich führen kann – darauf sucht der 1. HIGHER EDUCATION Summit 2018 kreative, kontroverse und visionäre Antworten.
Veranstaltet vom neuen FORUM Higher Education, bringt der programmatisch hochwertige und intensive Tageskongress führende Denker, Entscheider und Anwender digitaler Lern- und Lehrlösungen für den Hochschulbetrieb aus dem deutschsprachigen Raum zusammen.
Forums such as Stack Overflow are used by many software developers to find a solution for a given coding problem. Found solutions, i.e. forum posts containing relevant source code, are utilized in a copy and paste manner. This behavior carries the risk that vulnerabilities contained in the source code of the forum posts are spread. Software developers should be able to identify vulnerable source code at an early stage, thereby preventing copying the corresponding source code. In this paper, we introduce the tool CopypastaVulGuard that identifies vulnerable source code in forum posts and allows software developers to omit the source code by marking the forum posts as dangerous. Our tool consists of a browser extension and a management application capable to address as examples SQL injections, remote code executions and deprecated functions based on a dump of the archive.org Stack Overflow data set. We present an evaluation of our tool's possible impact and relevance considering pros/cons and selected research questions.

Cyberspatial audio applications are distinguished from the broad range of spatial audio applications in a number of important ways that help to focus this review. Most significant is that cyberspatial audio is most often designed to be responsive to user inputs. In contrast to non-interactive auditory displays, cyberspatial auditory displays typically allow active exploration of the virtual environment in which users find themselves. Thus, at least some portion of the audio presented in a cyberspatial environment must be selected, processed, or otherwise rendered with minimum delay relative to user input. Besides the technological demands associated with realtime delivery of spatialized sound, the type and quality of auditory experiences supported are also very different from those associated with displays that support stationary sound localization.

In this paper we describe the design of a virtual reality simulator for traditional intuitive archery. Traditional archers aim without a target figure. Good shooting results require an excellent body-eye coordination that allows the user to perform identical movements when drawing the bow. Our simulator provides a virtual archery experience and supports the user to learn and practice the motion sequence of traditional archery in a virtual environment. We use an infrared tracking system to capture the user’s movements in order to correct his movement. To provide a realistic haptic feedback a real bow is used as interaction device. Our system provides a believable user experience and supports the user to learn how to shoot in the traditional way. Following a user-centered iterative design approach we developed a number of prototypes and evaluated them for refinement in sequent iteration cycles. For illustration purposes we created a short video clip in our virtual studio about this project that presents the main ideas in an informative yet entertaining way.
