The Switching Dual Layer Display with a Dynamic LCD Mask is a multi-layer three-dimensional display capable of independent layer content and occlusion between layers.

We use a transparent LCD panel as a programmable dynamic mask.

We design and demonstrate a four-lens folded optical cloak and a three-lens inverted cloak with an erecting prism.

We introduce a miniaturized active stabilization mechanism that attenuates such disturbances and keeps the camera steady.

In this paper, we use KUKA’s Fast Robot Interface (FRI) to design and implement a tracking controller on the Lightweight Robot (LBR) IIWA.

We propose an end-to-end solution for presenting movie quality animated graphics to the user while still allowing the sense of presence afforded by free viewpoint head motion.

We present a system enabling users to accurately catch a real ball while immersed in a virtual reality environment.

The hierarchical and heterogeneous nature of human crowd behaviors makes it very difficult to find a definitive set of evaluation rules or empirical metrics. Therefore, data-driven evaluation methods are particularly useful for this purpose.

We propose ways to increase the displayed image pixel resolution without having to manufacture any additional pixels, while at the same time maintaining full-color 24-bit images.
