  1. 21. Touching the Essence of Life : Haptic Virtual Proteins for Learning

    Författare :Petter Bivall; Anders Ynnerman; Lena A. E. Tibell; Matthew D. Cooper; Miriam Reiner; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Haptics; Educational Research; Biomolecular Education; Life Science; JND; Just Noticeable Difference; Protein-ligand Docking; Haptic docking; Visualization; Haptic Transfer Functions; Volume Data Haptics; History Dependent Transfer Function; Log file analysis; Molecular Recognition; Force Feedback; Virtual Reality; Other information technology; Övrig informationsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation presents research in the development and use of a multi-modal visual and haptic virtual model in higher education. The model, named Chemical Force Feedback (CFF), represents molecular recognition through the example of protein-ligand docking, and enables students to simultaneously see and feel representations of the protein and ligand molecules and their force interactions.

  2. 22. On the use of visualisation tools in product design : exploring possibilities and problems of virtual reality techniques

    Författare :Per Johansson; Simon Richir; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : The research presented in this thesis has its base in product development methodology and examines product representations and visual displays as tools for product design. New visualisation technologies, such as VR, has entered the market, but unfortunately, questions of usability and accessibility for the designer are often set aside in favour of development of the technology itself.

    Sammanfattning : In both physical and virtual environments, small group interactions significantly shape our social experiences. Understanding and replicating situated group interactions with virtual agents or physical robots pose possibilities and challenges. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Computer Visualization in Participatory and Cognitive Engineering

    Författare :Peter Bengtsson; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Utvecklingspsykologi; Development psychology; Dynamic Decision Making; Operator Process Interfaces; Action Research; Learning; Ergonomics; Engineering; Participatory; Virtual Reality; Animation; Computer; Visualization; Systems engineering; computer technology; Data- och systemvetenskap; Architecture; interior design; Arkitektur; inredningsarkitektur; Engineering Psychology;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis tells the initiation story of a computer visualization methodology and a participatory engineering methodology. The two methodologies are tightly coupled and for the purpose of this thesis, as a unit, named Computer Visualization in Par-ticipatory Engineering (VIPE). LÄS MER

  5. 25. Towards a Framework for Efficient Use of Virtual Reality in Urban Planning and Building Design

    Författare :Mikael Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; building design; computer graphics; 3D-city models; Building Information Model; usability; urban planning; Virtual Reality;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis mainly deals with the question on how Virtual Reality (VR) simulations can become a communication tool that is integrated in the urban planning and building design process. The work has investigated both technical and usability aspects of the VR technology and identified challenges encountered when trying to implement VR as a natural communication platform in urban planning and building design.
