Purpose: Image guidance is crucial for the success of many interventions. Images are displayed on designated monitors that cannot be positioned optimally due to sterility and spatial constraints. This indirect visualization causes potential occlusion, hinders hand-eye coordination, leads to increased procedure duration and surgeon load. Methods: We propose a virtual monitor system that displays medical images in a mixed reality visualization using optical see-through head-mounted displays. The system streams high-resolution medical images from any modality to the head-mounted display in real-time that are blended with the surgical site. It allows for mixed reality visualization of images in head-, world-, or body-anchored mode and can thus be adapted to specific procedural needs. Results: For typical image sizes, the proposed system exhibits an average end-to-end delay and refresh rate of 214 +- 30 ms and 41:4 +- 32:0 Hz, respectively. Conclusions: The proposed virtual monitor system is capable of real-time mixed reality visualization of medical images. In future, we seek to conduct first pre-clinical studies to quantitatively assess the impact of the system on standard image guided procedures.

Efficient motion intent communication is necessary for safe and collaborative work environments with collocated humans and robots. Humans efficiently communicate their motion intent to other humans through gestures, gaze, and social cues. However, ro
bots often have difficulty efficiently communicating their motion intent to humans via these methods. Many existing methods for robot motion intent communication rely on 2D displays, which require the human to continually pause their work and check a visualization. We propose a mixed reality head-mounted display visualization of the proposed robot motion over the wearers real-world view of the robot and its environment. To evaluate the effectiveness of this system against a 2D display visualization and against no visualization, we asked 32 participants to labeled different robot arm motions as either colliding or non-colliding with blocks on a table. We found a 16% increase in accuracy with a 62% decrease in the time it took to complete the task compared to the next best system. This demonstrates that a mixed-reality HMD allows a human to more quickly and accurately tell where the robot is going to move than the compared baselines.
Mobile virtual reality (VR) head mounted displays (HMD) have become popular among consumers in recent years. In this work, we demonstrate real-time egocentric hand gesture detection and localization on mobile HMDs. Our main contributions are: 1) A no
vel mixed-reality data collection tool to automatic annotate bounding boxes and gesture labels; 2) The largest-to-date egocentric hand gesture and bounding box dataset with more than 400,000 annotated frames; 3) A neural network that runs real time on modern mobile CPUs, and achieves higher than 76% precision on gesture recognition across 8 classes.
Optical see-though head-mounted displays (OST HMDs) are one of the key technologies for merging virtual objects and physical scenes to provide an immersive mixed reality (MR) environment to its user. A fundamental limitation of HMDs is, that the user
itself cannot be augmented conveniently as, in casual posture, only the distal upper extremities are within the field of view of the HMD. Consequently, most MR applications that are centered around the user, such as virtual dressing rooms or learning of body movements, cannot be realized with HMDs. In this paper, we propose a novel concept and prototype system that combines OST HMDs and physical mirrors to enable self-augmentation and provide an immersive MR environment centered around the user. Our system, to the best of our knowledge the first of its kind, estimates the users pose in the virtual image generated by the mirror using an RGBD camera attached to the HMD and anchors virtual objects to the reflection rather than the user directly. We evaluate our system quantitatively with respect to calibration accuracy and infrared signal degradation effects due to the mirror, and show its potential in applications where large mirrors are already an integral part of the facility. Particularly, we demonstrate its use for virtual fitting rooms, gaming applications, anatomy learning, and personal fitness. In contrast to competing devices such as LCD-equipped smart mirrors, the proposed system consists of only an HMD with RGBD camera and, thus, does not require a prepared environment making it very flexible and generic. In future work, we will aim to investigate how the system can be optimally used for physical rehabilitation and personal training as a promising application.
Head gesture is a natural means of face-to-face communication between people but the recognition of head gestures in the context of virtual reality and use of head gesture as an interface for interacting with virtual avatars and virtual environments
have been rarely investigated. In the current study, we present an approach for real-time head gesture recognition on head-mounted displays using Cascaded Hidden Markov Models. We conducted two experiments to evaluate our proposed approach. In experiment 1, we trained the Cascaded Hidden Markov Models and assessed the offline classification performance using collected head motion data. In experiment 2, we characterized the real-time performance of the approach by estimating the latency to recognize a head gesture with recorded real-time classification data. Our results show that the proposed approach is effective in recognizing head gestures. The method can be integrated into a virtual reality system as a head gesture interface for interacting with virtual worlds.
We suggest a rasterization pipeline tailored towards the need of head-mounted displays (HMD), where latency and field-of-view requirements pose new challenges beyond those of traditional desktop displays. Instead of rendering and warping for low late
ncy, or using multiple passes for foveation, we show how both can be produced directly in a single perceptual rasterization pass. We do this with per-fragment ray-casting. This is enabled by derivations of tight space-time-fovea pixel bounds, introducing just enough flexibility for requisite geometric tests, but retaining most of the the simplicity and efficiency of the traditional rasterizaton pipeline. To produce foveated images, we rasterize to an image with spatially varying pixel density. To reduce latency, we extend the image formation model to directly produce rolling images where the time at each pixel depends on its display location. Our approach overcomes limitations of warping with respect to disocclusions, object motion and view-dependent shading, as well as geometric aliasing artifacts in other foveated rendering techniques. A set of perceptual user studies demonstrates the efficacy of our approach.
