CyberGlass: Vision-Based VRML2 Navigator

摘要

In this paper, I will show an example of a VRML 2.0 interface for a portable device. CyberGlass uses a "video recording metaphor" to examine a 3D virtual world. The critical problem is to change a viewpoint in the virtual world based on the movement of a portable device. We have solved this problem using data obtained from a CCD camera. Using a CCD camera to detect motion enables us to develop a compact device. We developed a prototype of CyberGlass to provide an intuitive access to 3D world.
