Abstract:
This sketch presents techniques for implementing enhanced reality, in which live video and computer graphics are combined to produce real-time, movie-like special effects in the home. The range of achievable effects is limitless, anywhere from something as simple as causing a participant’s eyes to glow to something as complex as enabling interaction with an artificial character (for example, Stuart Little). The ability to create such effects enables a new form of computer entertainment that is both more personalized and more engaging than traditional computer entertainment (video games).
