LUST (lebenswerte und umweltgerechte Stadt) ist ein interdisziplinäres Projekt der Fachbereiche Architektur, Maschinenbau und Verfahrenstechnik sowie Kultur- und Sozialwissenschaften der Hochschule Düsseldorf. Mittelpunkt des Projektes ist die fachübergreifende Entwicklung neuer Konzepte für eine lebenswerte und umweltgerechte Stadt. Es wurde gefördert vom Land Nordrhein-Westfalen im Rahmen des Programms „FH Struktur“.
Shadows in computer graphics are an important rendering aspect for spatial objects. For realtime computer applications such as games, it is essential to represent shadows as accurate as possible. Also, various tv stations work with virtual studio systems instead of real studio sets. Especially for those systems, a realistic impression of the rendered and mixed scene is important. One challenge, hence, is the creation of a natural shadow impression. This paper presents the results of an empirical study to compare the performance and quality of different shadow mapping methods. For this test, a prototype studio renderer was developed. A percentage closer filter (pcf) with a number of specific resolutions is used to minimize the aliasing issue. More advanced algorithms which generate smooth shadows like the percentage closer soft shadow (pcss) method as well as the variance shadow maps (vsm) method are analysed. Different open source apis are used to develop the virtual studio renderer, giving the benefit of permanent enhancement. The Ogre 3D graphic engine is used to implement the rendering system, benefiting from various functions and plugins. The transmission of the tracking data is accomplished with the vrpn server/client and the Intersense api. The different shadow algorithms are compared in a virtual studio environment which also casts real shadows and thus gives a chance for a direct comparison throughout the empirical user study. The performance is measured in frames per secon
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.
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.
Was ist eigentlich ein "UnSeminar"? Prof. Marmann aus dem Fachbereich Medien der Hochschule Düsseldorf erklärt in einem Interview mit dem Hochschulradio Düsseldorf sein Konzept für die Durchführung von Seminaren, das den Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmern sehr viel Freiheit in der (digitalen) Ausgestaltung der Themen bietet.
In Anlehnung an das Barcamp-Format, das auch "Unkonferenz" genannt wird, werden die Seminarthemen erst im Verlauf der Veranstaltung und durch Teilnehmenden entwickelt. Hierzu dienen mehrere Feedbackschleifen. Darüber hinaus kommen in den Unseminaren verschiedene digitale Technologien zur Organisation, zur Kommunikation und zur Kreation zum Einsatz, um en passant auch die Digitalkompetenz der Studierenden weiterzuentwickeln. So ist z.B. ein Multimedia-Abstract Bestandteil eines jeden Seminarbeitrages und die Seminarbeiträge selbst werden mit einem typischen Blogsystem ausgearbeitet. Alle Beiträge sind innerhalb des Fachbereichs für interessierte Studierende einsehbar, so dass Studierende auch von Kommilitonen lernen können.
In dieser Arbeit werden die definierenden Eigenschaften von Open Educational Resources (OER) recherchiert. Wie können die Anforderungen an Inhalten, Medien-wahl, didaktischen Konzept mit einem hohen Grad an Interaktivität erfüllt werden? – Die Literatur zu diesen Fragestellungen liefert den aktuellen Forschungsstand.
The late immersion of multi-touch sensitive displays enables the use of tangibles on multi-touch screens. There a several wide spread and/or sophisticated solutions to fulfill this need but they seem to have some flaws. One popular system at the time of writing is an overlay frame that can be placed on a normal display with the corresponding size. The frame creates a grid with infrared light emitting diodes. The disruption of this grid can be detected and messages with the positions are sent via usb to a connected computer. This system is quite robust in matters of ambient light insensitivity and also fast to calibrate. Unfortunately it is not created with the recognition of tangibles in mind and printed patterns can not be resolved. This article summarizes an attempt to create fiducials that are recognized by an infrared multi-touch frame as fingers. Those false fingers are checked by a software for known patterns. Once a known pattern (= fiducial) has been recognized its position and orientation are send with the finger positions towards the interactive software. The usability is tested with an example application where tangibles and finger touches are used in combination.
