ABSTRACT
We propose a video streaming system that lets users view their favorite sections through an HMD (head mount display) from a video recorded by a spherical (360-degree) camera. Although spherical video streaming tends to consume a lot of bitrate for its huge image area, our system consumes a reasonable amount of bitrate by assigning higher bitrate only for the user's viewing area, not for the area outside of it. Technical Demos of the system with an Oculus Rift HMD will be performed to demonstrate it enables them to view images at a bitrate of about 2.5 Mbps.

Haptic around: multiple tactile sensations for immersive environment and interaction in virtual reality
VRST '18: Proceedings of the 24th ACM Symposium on Virtual Reality Software and TechnologyIn this paper, we present Haptic Around, a hybrid-haptic feedback system, which utilizes fan, hot air blower, mist creator and heat light to recreate multiple tactile sensations in virtual reality for enhancing the immersive environment and interaction. ...
Super wide viewer using catadioptrical optics
VRST '03: Proceedings of the ACM symposium on Virtual reality software and technologyMany applications have used a Head-Mounted Display (HMD), such as in virtual and mixed realities, and tele-presence. The advantage of HMD systems is the ease of feeling a 3D world in the display of animation or movies. However, the field of view (FOV) ...
