IK Avatar Test With Bow okreylos 2022-07-01 | Just a test of the current IK avatar code, which still has some bugs, but this is looking decent so far. To quote an eloquent commenter from the previous video: "What is a bow, but a more complex way of throwing?"The target in frame is 20 meters away; the out-of-frame target is 15 meters away.Before I get angry comments: ;-)- My Valve Index's built-in microphone is still recording total silence. No idea why.- I know one doesn't "shoot" arrows, but "looses" them. It slipped out.- I changed the quiver position right before filming; should have practiced first.
Why Throwing Often Does Not Work In VR okreylos 2022-06-29 | I've recently thought about throwing, and why many VR applications or games don't seem to get it quite right. Here I am giving my thoughts on what the underlying causes might be, and how to fix it for a better, by which I mean more intuitive and predictable, throwing experience.Important note: at 8:57 I say that averaging to remove noise is a bad idea, but I forgot to mention the most important reason why: averaging can get rid of *random* noise, but this noise *is not random, as I explain.*
Semi-Automatic Calibration of Non-Aligned Projections okreylos 2022-06-21 | In this video I am demonstrating a new projection calibration procedure that will be part of Vrui's RoomSetup utility, and lets users quickly calibrate a large screen, even an ad-hoc off-axis projection screen, with the VR tracking system, to show precisely-aligned "mixed reality" projections from arbitrary camera positions.While a VR application is running, the virtual camera position can be set at any time simply by touching a real camera's lens with an input device and pressing a selected button. From that point on, the real camera will show a precisely aligned view of the virtual world.
Starlink and Space Debris okreylos 2022-06-18 | A quick video about a visualization of low-Earth orbit space objects I made from NASA/NORAD tracking data, focusing on the more than 2,400 Starlink satellites criss-crossing low-Earth orbit, just because.Victoria Keddie's web site: http://www.victoriakeddie.comSpace-Track.org's web site: space-track.org

Great Circles are Straight Lines (as much as thats possible on a sphere) okreylos 2020-05-14 | When flying along a great circle route, pilots do not have to turn their planes left or right to stay on course. But, throughout the flight, the apparent compass heading of the plane will change, because the compass is aligned with the meridian great circles, which are not parallel to each other (they intersect in the north and south poles).Smithsonian navigation page mentioned in the video: https://timeandnavigation.si.edu/multimedia-asset/great-circle-route

Dawn Sumner Talking About Mars Curiosity Rover okreylos 2019-07-22 | A recording of Dawn Sumner, member of the MSL (Mars Science Laboratory, commonly known as "Mars Curiosity rover") science team, talking about some of the rover's features.I filmed this (using a mobile phone; I apologize for poor audio and video quality) to test tracked-camera video recording during a filming session we did in the UC Davis ModLab for an upcoming 90 minute National Geographic TV special on Mars exploration.The Mars rover CAD model was provided by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL).The 3D Mars terrain data was reconstructed from images sent back to Earth by the rover's NavCam stereo cameras. The rover CAD model is "parked" exactly where the rover actually stood on Mars while capturing the initial set of source imagery.The terrain texture was created by projecting images sent back to Earth by the rover's MastCam color camera onto the reconstructed 3D terrain.Dawn is viewing the 3D rover model and the 3D Mars terrain model using an HTC Vive virtual reality headset, running custom VR visualization software developed at UC Davis.More information:nasa.gov/mission_pages/msl/index.htmlmars.nasa.gov/msl/mission/rover/eyesandotherhttps://geology.ucdavis.edu/people/faculty/sumnertwitter.com/sumnerdhttp://modlab.ucdavis.edu
AR/VR Sandbox at UC Davis Picnic Day 2019 okreylos 2019-04-14 | As is tradition for Picnic Day, we rolled out the AR Sandbox as an exhibit inside the Department of Earth & Planetary Sciences.This time, we unveiled the new "VR mode," where users wearing VR headsets can explore the dynamic sand surface in real time and at 1:1 scale.The small red sphere on the TV display indicates the position of the VR user inside the AR Sandbox. In this clip, a group of users around the AR Sandbox created a high-altitude reservoir, and the VR user wants to experience a dam failure from ground level.More information: http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/SARndbox

VR ProtoShop in CAVE okreylos 2018-09-02 | Here's another ancient video from the vault: Interacting with a 3D protein model in the CAVE, using the VR version of ProtoShop. I recorded this one in early 2006.ProtoShop is a modeling program for proteins, specifically designed to create initial configurations for ab-initio protein structure prediction. It's described in detail in this paper, which won the "Best Application" award at the 2003 IEEE Visualization conference:Kreylos, O., Max, N.L., Hamann, B., Crivelli, S.N. and Bethel, E.W., "Interactive Protein Manipulation," in: Turk, G., van Wijk, J.J., and Moorhead, R.J., eds., "IEEE Visualization 2003," IEEE Computer Society Press, Los Alamitos, CA, pp. 581-588ProtoShop has been used in several international protein structure prediction competitions, and was crucial in predicting the structures of several large proteins that were too complex for non-interactive prediction.More information on (VR) ProtoShop: http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/ProtoShop

The data collection was overseen by UC Davis researcher Dr. Ian Faloona.
Lets Play... Starglider Pro! okreylos 2018-02-20 | This is a blast from the past. A protected-mode DOS game for VGA/VESA 2.0 graphics adapters and SoundBlaster sound cards I made in the summer of '96 as preparation for my 3D computer graphics oral exam. It's a rip-off of Rainbird's famous mid-80s Starglider game, which was one of my favorites on the Atari ST.The game and 3D rendering engine were developed from scratch, as an unholy mixture of C++ and 386 assembly for the low-level parts such as fixed-point linear algebra, 2D frame buffer graphics, and multi-source sound mixing.More information: http://doc-ok.org/?p=1690
LiDAR Viewer on Vive with Aerial LiDAR Scan okreylos 2017-12-14 | Using LiDAR Viewer to explore and analyze an aerial LiDAR scan of the city of San Francisco and environs.

Sensor Fusion for Object Tracking okreylos 2017-09-02 | Tracking in modern commercial VR systems is based on the principle of sensor fusion, where measurements from multiple independent sensors are combined to estimate the position and orientation of tracked objects with better quality than what can be achieved by using those same sensors in isolation.This video shows a simulation of a moving and rotating object in two dimensions, tracked by an external absolute measurement system and a relative measurement system integrated into the tracked object. Measurements from these two systems are combined using a non-linear extension of the Kalman filter, yielding a result with low noise, low update latency, and no drift.Related videos:Pure IMU-based Positional Tracking is a No-go: youtube.com/watch?v=_q_8d0E3tDkOptical 3D Pose Estimation of Oculus Rift DK2: youtube.com/watch?v=X4G6_zt1qKYLighthouse Tracking Examined - Headset at Rest: youtube.com/watch?v=Uzv2H3PDPDgLighthouse Tracking Examined - Headset in Motion: youtube.com/watch?v=XwxwMruEE7YLighthouse Tracking Examined - Controller in Motion: youtube.com/watch?v=A75uKqA67FIPlaystation Move Tracking Test: youtube.com/watch?v=0J5LaWykiIUMore information:en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalman_filter

Mixed Reality Recording with Static 3D Camera okreylos 2017-07-30 | Using the static camera calibration created in a previous video, we now record the user inside and interacting with a virtual environment. Calibration ensures that real objects recorded with the 3D camera line up well with virtual objects.This video was entirely created and recorded in-engine, without green screens or any post-processing.More information:http://doc-ok.org/?p=1623http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Kinecthttp://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Vrui
Extrinsic 3D Camera Calibration - Moving Camera okreylos 2017-07-29 | Second video showing the inverse extrinsic calibration procedure, where it is now the 3D camera that is rigidly attached to a tracked object, and the calibration disk is at a fixed position in world space. This setup could, for example, be used to record more dynamic mixed-reality footage of a VR application with a moving camera.The calibration procedure is very similar, only that now the camera needs to be aimed at the calibration disk from a variety of positions and orientations.More information:http://doc-ok.org/?p=1623http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Kinecthttp://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Vrui
Extrinsic 3D Camera Calibration - Static Camera okreylos 2017-07-28 | Video showing the new extrinsic calibration procedure to align a 3D camera such as Microsoft's Kinect with a 3D tracking system such as HTC Vive's Lighthouse.A flat disk (a CD/DVD covered in paper on both sides) is attached to a controller or other tracked object, and shown to the camera in several different positions, and several different orientations, throughout the tracked space. As tie points are collected, the software updates the tracker-camera calibration in real time, and finally saves it as the camera's persistent extrinsic calibration.More information:http://doc-ok.org/?p=1623http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Kinecthttp://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Vrui
Playing Catch in VR okreylos 2017-07-13 | While calibrating my 3D camera with respect to my VR headset, I was wondering: would calibration be good enough to play catch while in VR? Fortunately, I had a little helper at hand to find out.On second thought, this is probably more like playing catch in pass-through augmented reality, but whatever.More information:http://doc-ok.org/?p=1508http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Kinect

Collaborative Data Analysis between CAVE and Vive okreylos 2017-02-09 | Clip from a collaborative visualization session at KeckCAVES, between the CAVE and an HTC Vive head-mounted VR system. This clip was recorded by post-doc Dr. Carlye Peterson during a recent meeting of a multi-campus NSF-funded paleoceanography project involving UC Davis, UC Santa Barbara, and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. The project is investigating changes in global ocean flow patterns in response to change in global climate between the last ice age and today, based on differences of stable isotope distributions in benthic core samples collected at hundreds of sites across the globe.The visualization software shown in this clip is 3D Visualizer, looking at combinations of 3D isotope field reconstructions superimposed over a high-resolution global bathymetry model. Collaboration between individual VR systems (in this case CAVE and Vive) is supported by the Vrui VR toolkit's collaboration infrastructure add-on. Remote users are embedded into each VR system as real-time, pseudo-holographic 3D video avatars captured by one or more 3D cameras integrated into each VR system.More information:http://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Vruihttp://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Kinecthttp://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/Collaborationhttp://idav.ucdavis.edu/~okreylos/ResDev/DataExploration
