A generic approach to high performance visualization enabled augmented reality
Presentation / Conference
Hughes, C., John, N., & Riding, M. A generic approach to high performance visualization enabled augmented reality. Presented at Proceedings of the UK e-Science All Hands Meeting 2006, Nottingham, UK

Traditionally registration and tracking within Augmented Reality (AR) applications have been built
around limited bold markers, which allow for their orientation to be estimated in real-time. All
attempts to implement AR without specific markers ha... Read More about A generic approach to high performance visualization enabled augmented reality.

Voice interaction for accessible immersive video players
Presentation / Conference
Hughes, C., & Paton, J. Voice interaction for accessible immersive video players. Poster presented at HUCAPP 2021 : 5th International Conference on Human Computer Interaction Theory and Applications, Online

Immersive environments present new challenges for all users, especially those with accessibility
requirements. Once a user is fully immersed in an experience, they no longer have access to the devices that
they would have in the real world such as... Read More about Voice interaction for accessible immersive video players.
