Course Objectives: | In this course, different topics related to virtual reality are discussed to focus on tactile systems. Theoretical topics covered will include 3D virtual environments, tactile and visual imaging, tactile interfaces, bendable and rigid objects, tactile interaction and psychophysics of touch. During the course, students will have the opportunity to practice with different graphic and tactile interaction libraries as well as obtain basic information about virtual reality applications. |
Course Content: | Fundamentals of virtual reality systems, geometric modeling, transformations, creating graphic and tactile images, Spatial representations and transformations, evaluation of virtual reality systems. |
