Title: | Web-Powered Virtual Site Exploration Based on Augmented 360 Degree Video via Gesture-Based Interaction | Authors: | WIJNANTS, Maarten ROVELO RUIZ, Gustavo DEGRAEN, Donald QUAX, Peter LUYTEN, Kris LAMOTTE, Wim |
Issue Date: | 2015 | Source: | Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop on Interactive Content Consumption (WSICC 2015) | Series/Report: | CEUR Workshop Proceedings | Abstract: | Physically attending an event or visiting a venue might not always be practically feasible (e.g., due to travel overhead). This article presents a system that enables users to remotely navigate in and interact with a real-world site using 360° video as primary content format. To showcase the system, a demonstrator has been built that affords virtual exploration of a Belgian museum. The system blends contributions from multiple research disciplines into a holistic solution. Constituting technological building blocks include 360° video, the Augmented Video Viewing (AVV) methodology that allows for Web-driven annotation of video content, a walk-up-and-use mid-air gesture tracking system to enable natural user interaction with the system, Non-Linear Video (NLV) constructs to unlock semi-free visitation of the physical site, and the MPEG-DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP) standard for adaptive media delivery purposes. The system’s feature list will be enumerated and a high-level discussion of its technological foundations will be provided. The resulting solution is completely HTML5-compliant and therefore portable to a gamut of devices. | Keywords: | virtual exploration; HTML5; 360° video; non-linear video; gestural interaction; MPEG-DASH; augmented video viewing | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/19033 | Link to publication: | http://research.edm.uhasselt.be/~mwijnants/pdf/wijnantsWSICC2015.pdf | Rights: | Copyright is held by the author(s)/owner(s). | Category: | C1 | Type: | Proceedings Paper |
