fARFEEL: Providing Haptic Sensation of Touched Objects using Visuo-Haptic Feedback
IEEE VR 2019 Demonstration
VR/AR Human Perception
We present an interactive system which provides the haptic feedback matched to the position of the projected virtual hand (VH). The system allows the local and remote users to communicate by using the projected VH for an agency of his/her own hands ...

Sequential Support: 3D Printing Dissolvable Support Material for Time-Dependent Mechanisms
ACM TEI 2019 Full Papers
Fabrication
We propose a different perspective on the use of support material: rather than printing support structures for overhangs, our idea is to make use of its transient nature, i.e. the fact that it can be dissolved when placed in a solvent, such as water. This enables a range of new use cases...

FlyingHand: Extending the Range of Haptic Feedback on Virtual Hand using Drone-based Object Recognition
ACM SIGGRAPH Asia 2018 Technical Briefs Short Papers
VR/AR Human Perception
We present an HMD integrated system that uses a drone and a virtual hand to help the users explore and access space of the remote environment regardless of body limitations. The system allows the users to use hand gestures to control the drone and identify the Objects of Interest...

FleXeen: Visually Manipulating Perceived Fabric Bending Stiffness in Spatial Augmented Reality
IEEE TVCG 2018 Journal Papers, IEEE VR 2019 Invited Talks
Human Perception
This study presents a novel spatial augmented reality, or projection mapping, approach that can visually manipulate the perceived bending stiffness of a fabric. Particularly, we proposed a flow enhancement method that can change the apparent fabric motion by using a simple optical flow...

Efficient Information Sharing Techniques between Workers of Heterogeneous Tasks in 3D CVE
ACM CSCW 2018 Journal Papers
VR/AR
We compare different information sharing techniques and determine and efficient technique for the collaboration between workers. In our user experiment, particinants performed a floor plan design task in a designer and engineer pairing on a desktop VR environment...

ColorMod: Recoloring 3D Printed Objects using Photochromic Inks
ACM CHI 2018 Full Papers, and ACM CHI 2018 Demonstration
Fabrication
We present ColorMod, a method for changing the color of a 3D-printed object even after fabrication. ColorMod works based on photochromic inks that can switch their appearance from transparent to colored when exposed to light of a certain wavelength...

Personal Fabrication Research in HCI and Graphics: An Overview of Related Work
This project hosted by Prof. Stefanie Mueller at MIT CSAIL
Fabrication
This website archived all papers related to personal fabrication in the HCI and Graphics communities. Each paper comes with an image, a short description, and links to the pdf, video, and a webpage if available...

SoftAR: Visually Manipulating Haptic Softness Perception in Spatial Augmented Reality
IEEE ISMAR 2014/2015 Poster, IEEE TVCG 2015 Journal Papers, ACM SIGGRAPH 2016 Invited Talks, and MIRU 2016 Invited Talks
VR/AR Human Perception
We present SoftAR, a novel spatial augmented reality (AR) technique based on a pseudo-haptics mechanism that visually manipulates the sense of softness perceived by a user pushing a soft physical object. Considering the limitations of projection-based approaches that change only...

LazyNav: 3D Ground Navigation with Non-Critical Body Parts
ICAT-EGVE 2014 Demonstration, IEEE 3DUI 2015 Full Papers Best Paper Award, and IEEE TVCG 2016 Journal Papers
VR/AR
While classical input devices have their own ground navigation standards, natural input techniques still lack acknowledged mechanisms for travelling in a 3D scene. In particular, navigation is not the primary interaction. Thus, the user should navigate in the scene while still being...

DeforMe: Visualization of Tangential Surface Deformation using Invisible Textures
KJMR2013 Workshop Papers Best Presentation Award, ACM SIGGRAPH Asia 2013: Emerging Technologies Demonstration, and Springer-Verlag Virtual Reality 2015 Journal Papers
VR/AR
We propose a projection-based mixed reality system that visualizes the tangential deformation of a nonrigid surface by superimposing graphics directly onto the surface by projected imagery. The superimposed graphics is deformed according to the surface deformation...
