Extracted Abstract:

—Spatial augmented reality, where virtual information is projected into a user’s real environment, provides tremendous opportunities for immersive analytics. In this demonstration, we focus on real-time interactive crowd simulation, that is, the illustration of how crowds move under certain circumstances. Our augmented reality system, called CrowdAR, allows users to study a crowd’s motion behavior by projecting the output of our simulation software onto an augmented reality table and objects on this table. Our prototype system is currently being revised and extended to serve as a museum exhibit. Using real-time interaction, it can teach scientific principles about simulations and illustrate how such they, in combination with augmented reality, can be used for crowd behavior analysis. I.

Level 1: Include/Exclude

  • Papers must discuss situated information visualization* (by Willet et al.) in the application domain of CH.
    *A situated data representation is a data representation whose physical presentation is located close to the data’s physical referent(s).
    *A situated visualization is a situated data representation for which the presentation is purely visual – and is typically displayed on a screen.
  • Representation must include abstract data (e.g., metadata).
  • Papers focused solely on digital reconstruction without information visualization aspects are excluded.
  • Posters and workshop papers are excluded to focus on mature research contributions.
