A mixed reality telepresence system with limited DOF motion base and immersive display

Published: 29 October 2009 Publication History

Abstract

This paper describes a mixed reality (MR) telepresence system for a ride to provide users with a highly realistic sensation. To make a realistic scene in a virtual environment, it is necessary to combine visual information with a reproduction of the forces which a user experiences in the real environment. This paper proposes an MR telepresence system that presents a realistic image and an inertial force sensation using an immersive display and a motion base with limited degrees of freedom. In our approach, the realistic image is acquired with an omnidirectional camera and the inertial force is generated virtually by a combination of the acceleration of gravity and a video effect. In experiments, a prototype system has been proven to produce a highly realistic sensation in various environments.
