Module

Voraussetzungen

Inhalte

The course focuses on a particular form of Human-Computer Interaction: virtual environments and embodied virtual agents. With the help of tracking and advanced computer graphics, users can be embedded in a virtual environment and allowed to interact with it. Specific topics that will be covered include registration and tracking, perception and Virtual Reality, Display and input systems, interaction techniques, scene graphs, rendering for virtual and mixed environments, collision detection, complete virtual reality systems, applications, knowledge of approaches, trends and applications of virtual and mixed environments (virtual and mixed reality) as well as of embodied virtual agents.

Lernziele

After successfully completing the module, students have acquired knowledge of approaches, trends and applications of virtual and mixed environments (virtual and mixed reality). Among other things, they are familiar with tracking, display systems, interaction, input options, scene graphs and collision detection.
