Title:


    Levitar: Real Space Interaction through Mid-Air CG Avatar

Organizer(s)/Presenter(s):



Description:


    We propose a system to be a CG avatars in real space by using mid-air imaging technology. The video captured from the mid-air image position is presented to the user via the HMD and the camera gaze direction synchronized with the user’s head movement.
