AR für Wartungsunterstützung Welche Probleme gibt es bei der Wartung komplexer Anlagen und Maschinen? Bei der Wartung einer Maschine oder einer Industrieanlage kommt es häufig vor, dass das Personal bestimmte Informationen benötigt, um die entsprechende Wartung bzw. Reparatur durchzuführen. Hierbei treten Probleme unterschiedlicher Art auf: Die natürliche Vergessenskurve: Informationen, die lange nicht benötigt werden, werden vergessen oder können nicht schnell genug aus dem Langzeitgedächtnis abgerufen werden. Wie können diese Probleme reduziert werden? Die oben beschriebenen Probleme können durch ein am IPP entwickeltes Unterstützungssystem reduziert werden. Hierzu trägt der Benutzer ein kopfgebundenes Anzeigegerät (englisch: Head Mounted Display), an dem ein kleiner Positionssensor befestigt ist. angezeigt. Wie wurde das System realisiert? Der verwendete Positionssensor und das halbdurchlässige Display sind handelsübliche Komponenten. Wo kann das System noch eingesetzt werden? Schulung von Wartungspersonal

MIT Invents A Shapeshifting Display You Can Reach Through And Touch We live in an age of touch-screen interfaces, but what will the UIs of the future look like? Will they continue to be made up of ghostly pixels, or will they be made of atoms that you can reach out and touch? At the MIT Media Lab, the Tangible Media Group believes the future of computing is tactile. Unveiled today, the inFORM is MIT's new scrying pool for imagining the interfaces of tomorrow. Created by Daniel Leithinger and Sean Follmer and overseen by Professor Hiroshi Ishii, the technology behind the inFORM isn't that hard to understand. To put it in the simplest terms, the inFORM is a self-aware computer monitor that doesn't just display light, but shape as well. But what really interests the Tangible Media Group is the transformable UIs of the future. "Right now, the things designers can create with graphics are more powerful and flexible than in hardware," Leithinger tells Co.Design.

Meta and Steve Mann want to mediate your reality for $667 "Demo or die." That's the unofficial motto of Meta and it's a bedrock principle espoused by Raymond Lo, the company's CTO. Lo spent a decade under the tutelage of Professor Steve Mann (known to many as the father of wearable computing), and is one of the few to make it through Mann's Ph.D. program at the University of Toronto. We saw a prototype mediated reality headset from Meta a couple months ago, where we witnessed some rudimentary demos: typing in thin air and grabbing and moving digital objects with our hands. Mann's influence shows not only in its technology, but also in the terminology Meta uses. Both Lo and CEO Meron Gribetz know that the tech landscape is littered with vaporware that once promised functionality its makers couldn't deliver, but Meta's determined that its technology won't fall into that trap. Gribetz informed us that the majority of the demos seen in the video (above) would be functional by the end of the year. In the meantime, expect the demos to continue.

Interactions with an Omnidirectional Projector Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed This is a hemispherical dome in which users can interact with data from Virtual Earth and WorldWide Telescope. This was done using a regular projector and a wide-angle lens – and Microsoft technologies! The Ominidirectional Projector allows you to control 360 degrees of data displayed on the ceiling and walls with voice and hand gesture commands. The most popular program being displayed with the projector is an interactive virtual display of the Galaxy. Unfortunately, the Omnidirectional Projector is still in development stages, but Microsoft intends to make the system be able to work in a standard room instead requiring a domed room.
