This paper details the creation of a novel Virtual Reality-based application for the Industrial Metaverse aimed at shipboard fire emergency training for fire drill and evacuation, aligned with the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) convention requirements. ...

Volumetric video is a promising technology and it is on the rise due to the popularization of eXtended Reality (XR) applications. However, web support for it has only been lightly explored. Developing a platform to stream live volumetric video on the ...

Can we modify existing web-based computer graphics content through JavaScript injection? We study how to hijack the WebGL context of any external website to perform GPU-accelerated image processing and scene modification. This allows client-side ...

This work presents a web-based, open-source path tracer for rendering physically-based 3D scenes using WebGPU and the OpenPBR surface shading model. While rasterization has been the dominant real-time rendering technique on the web since WebGL’s ...

Real-time delivery of captured optical surface materials has several uses, ranging from commercial showcasing of products, or product configurators, on the web, to dissemination of and research on cultural heritage by providing easy access to ...

The vast majority of simplification algorithms are based roughly on the assumption that rendering time is related to the number of primitives, with the aim of reducing memory impact and rendering complexity. In this paper, we define more precisely the ...

4D flow magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) enables the evaluation of blood flow patterns in cardiovascular diseases by resolving the blood flow velocity relative to the three anatomical dimensions and the fourth dimension of time. 4D flow MRI processing ...

We introduce NeuroVerse, a framework designed to support the immersive exploration of 3D nanometric-scale reconstructions of structural and ultrastructural neural or glial cellular processes of the central nervous system. Utilizing image stacks acquired ...

Accurately replicating the appearance of real-world materials in computer graphics is a complex task due to the intricate interactions between light, reflectance, and geometry. In this paper we address the challenges of material representation, ...

Spectral rendering accurately simulates light-material interactions by considering the entire light spectrum, unlike traditional rendering methods that use limited color channels like RGB. This technique is particularly valuable in industries to assess ...

The Gaussian splatting methods are getting popular. However, their loss function only contains the ℓ1 norm and the structural similarity between the rendered and input images, without considering the edges in these images. It is well-known that the ...

Large-scale text-to-image (T2I) diffusion models have been extended for text-guided video editing, yielding impressive zero-shot video editing performance. Nonetheless, the generated videos usually show spatial irregularities and temporal inconsistencies ...

We present a novel method that can generate realistic speech animations of a 3D face from audio using multiple adaptive windows. In contrast to previous studies that use a fixed size audio window, our method accepts an adaptive audio window as input, ...

Point cloud (PC) compression is crucial to immersive visual applications such as autonomous vehicles to classify objects on the roads. The MPEG standardization group has achieved a notable compression efficiency, called video-based point-cloud compression ...

In this poster, we present work-in-progress research towards improving the spatial perception of 3D objects on Optical See-through Mixed Reality displays, addressing, in particular, visualizations comprising virtual objects embedded inside physical real-...

Via virtual reality (VR) and in 3D immersive virtual environments (IVEs), viewers can observe their surroundings in any direction. This unrestricted view challenges storytelling, as directors cannot control the viewer’s perspective. To overcome this, we ...

This work introduces PERCEPT-PIETON, a project aiming to understand through the use of virtual reality and inertial motion capture, perceptual-motor and cognitive mechanisms involved during driver-pedestrian interactions from the driver’s point of view. ...

Lighting has long been recognized as a crucial element in enhancing the appeal and emotional depth of characters across different media formats. This study investigates the impact of well-established portrait lighting designs on the perception of ...
