Abstract:
Displaying traditional desktop applications in virtual reality requires techniques to overcome the limited resolution of current displays while simultaneously taking advantage of the 360 real estate. Interacting with these applications is helped with the use of gestures using the controllers and hands. We''ll go over the use of mixed reality for easier keyboard typing when necessary, general safety, and finding things around, such as cables, chairs, and coffee. All techniques described are implemented and available in the commercially available software, called VR Toolbox.
