Benmahdjoub, Mohamed (author), Thabit, Abdullah (author), Van Veelen, Marie Lise C. (author), Niessen, W.J. (author), Wolvius, Eppo B. (author), Van Walsum, Theo (author)Augmented reality (AR) has shown potential in computer-aided surgery. It allows for the visualization of hidden anatomical structures as well as assists in navigating and locating surgical instruments at the surgical site. Various modalities (devices and/or visualizations) have been used in the literature, but few studies investigated the...journal article 2023

(author)Augmented Reality (AR) technology could be utilised to assist pedestrians in navigating safely through traffic. However, whether potential users would understand and use such AR solutions is currently unknown. Nine novel AR interfaces for pedestrian-vehicle communication, previously developed using an experience-based design method, were...journal article 2023

Jimenez Arroyo, Iñaki (author)Nowadays, the digital space is gaining more and more relevance in our daily lives. Transactions, documents, education, meetings, and social activities are being digitalised. Companies from around the globe are making steps and taking initiatives to lead the change with concepts like the “metaverse”. Parallelly, blockchain technology is helping...master thesis 2022

Chajid, Mohamed (author)Museums are places where the objects displayed are on a pedestal, often quite literally. These objects are found to be of such importance to be selected and displayed for thousands of people, tourists or purists, to see. <br/>This experience of visiting an institution, viewing an almost sacred object you cannot touch, and reading the...master thesis 2022

Cording, Henry (author)Diminished reality (DR) is an extension of augmented reality (AR) in which real objects are concealed, removed, or replaced. State of the art DR implementations are written and evaluated on desktop platforms, and those which are aimed at smartphones use auxiliary data or hardware for image completion. This paper introduces a DR app for Android...bachelor thesis 2022

Maat, Alex (author)Augmented Reality (AR) tracking for mobile devices is not realiable in environments where large virtual content, such as an entire virtual building, is to be displayed to the user. This paper presents a study on how multiple on-site markers can be used to better align the virtual scene to the real-world environment to improve large-scale AR...bachelor thesis 2022

Rensen, Max (author)In this paper, a method is proposed for stylizing stereoscopic augmented reality, while attempting to retain temporal and visual coherence. By tracking an AR marker and estimating a disparity map from stereo images, world positions of anchor points are tracked across frames and images, in order to move them with the scene. Additionally, the...bachelor thesis 2022

Lin, Giovanni (author)Augmented Reality has the potential to expand our interaction with our surrounding environment. A potential solution to improve this interactability is Visible Light Communication through blinking Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). Data is encoded and then transmitted by blinking the LED, a smart-phone camera is then pointed at the LED to decode the...bachelor thesis 2022

Becheanu, Luca (author)This paper introduces the concept of the Voronoi Split-Screen in Augmented Reality inside a Sailing Regatta visualization application. We are making use of existing methods in 2D environments and modifying them to treat the implications of merging the screen where a user has complete camera control (3D/AR/VR). This is done in three phases which...bachelor thesis 2022

Dumanlı, Ege (author)Simulating visually compelling water is difficult especially in Augmented Reality environments where the water has to interact with the user’s surroundings. In this paper, implementations of reflections, refractions and transparency effects that are physically inaccurate but result in visually compelling water simulation in Augmented Reality...bachelor thesis 2022

Dzelme, Rihards (author)We are at the beginning of the most significant societal change since the internet. We are transitioning from a 2-dimensional browser-based interaction to immersive 3-dimensional experiences. The metaverse is not a place or a destination but a state where technology and ecosystem are symbiotic. <br/>Digital Twins, interactive toolkits,...master thesis 2022

Omar Mohamed Hosny Mohamed Hussein, Omar (author)Patient and instrument tracking are fundamental parts of surgical navigation systems. Traditional surgical navigation systems rely on stationary cameras for tracking and stationary screens for presenting information. An increased mental load is exerted by surgeons as they switch focus between the surgical site and the presented data. By...bachelor thesis 2022

Ligthart, Laura (author)Augmented reality (AR) promises to be a valuable tool for anatomical education since any given anatomical site can be studied dynamically in three dimensions (3D). Yet, it has not been used with case-based learning in medical education despite the latter's demonstrated benefits. <br/>This research, thus, investigates the potential benefit of 3D...master thesis 2022

Andrade Borges, E.I. (author), Rieder, J.S.I. (author), Aschenbrenner, D. (author), Scharff, R.B.N. (author)Soft robots are typically intended to operate in highly unpredictable and unstructured environments. Although their soft bodies help them to passively conform to their environment, the execution of specific tasks within such environments often requires the help of an operator that supervises the interaction between the robot and its environment...journal article 2022

Benmahdjoub, Mohamed (author), Niessen, W.J. (author), Wolvius, Eppo B. (author), van Walsum, T. (author)Augmented reality (AR) permits the visualization of pre-operative data in the surgical field of view of the surgeon. This requires the alignment of the AR device’s coordinate system with the used navigation/tracking system. We propose a multimodal marker approach to align an AR device with a tracking system: in our implementation, an...journal article 2022
