2. 虛擬實境 In Chinese 　　虛擬實境的基本原理在於利用電腦產生並控制一個虛擬的世界，在此虛擬世界中，可以感受到如同處於一個真實的環境。 TextbookDefinition a medium composed of interactive computer simulations that sense the participant's position and actions and replace or augment the feedback to one or more senses, giving the feeling of being mentally immersed or present in the simulation (a virtual world). The Ultimate Display The ultimate display would be a room within which the computer can control the existence of matter. Such a display could literally be the Wonderland into which Alice walked. • Ivan E. Sutherland [1965] 電腦繪圖之父 Cyberspace a location that exists only in the minds of the participants, often as a result of technology that enablesgeographically distant people to interactively communicate. Augmented Reality a type of virtual reality in which synthetic stimuli are registered with and superimposed on real-world objects; often used to make information otherwise imperceptible to human senses perceptible.

5. 3D TV and Animation 所謂3d影像，也就是影像除了平面的x和y軸之外，還要有明顯的深度。最真實的3d影像是全像式3d投影，就如電影星際大戰中所看到的方式。不過此種技術目前發展仍然有相當大的困難，所以一般所採用的乃是利用人類左右眼所視角度略有不同，因而所接收影像有小幅差異的視差效果，在大腦中自動相互補償融合而形成的立體影像，並且在靜止以及移動的狀況下均能維持。也就是說技術的基本要求是要能讓左、右眼所看到的影像能有些許的不同。目前的3d技術大致可區分為眼鏡式和裸視3d技術： ◇眼鏡式技術(stereoscopic ◇偏光眼鏡(polarizing glasses ◇快門眼鏡(shutter glasses ◇裸視3d技術(autostereogram ◇光柵式(parrallax barrier ◇柱狀透鏡式(lenticular lens Communications & Multimedia Lab

6. Virtual RealityResearch Directions and Future Trend Few Technologies in recent years have evoked such fiery discussions in thetechnical community, and fewer still have sparked such passionate involvement ofthe humanities and the cultural sector. --- Carl Machover. VR: The quality of the experience is crucial. To stimulate creativity and productivity, the virtual experience must be credible. The "reality" must both react to the human participants in physically and perceptually appropriate ways, and confirm to their personal cognitive representations of the micro world in which they are engrossed. --- Carl Machover CG&A 1994.

David Rosen started SEGA in 1954 in Japan.(4 billion 1993; 2.2 billion 1992; 1.2 billion 1991)  SEGA will exploit the efficiency of electronics over iron and steel to creat a new entertainment form: virtual-reality theme parks. Parks packed with VR will occupy perhaps 3% of the land area of Florida's Disney World, so they can be put in densely populated areas. Nintendo(任天堂) Market share in Japan 78%, in US 51%, in Europe 41% Revenue distribution:(SEGA) 1/6 for ARCADES 1/6 for Home-use software 1/3 for Home-use game machines VR related games are already approaching 1/2 of ARCADES.

26. Just Noticeable Difference To estimate the Details Visibility Change between two images of signifcantly different dynamic range, knowledge of the hypothetical HVS response to given physical contrasts under given adaptation conditions is required. A reasonable prediction for a full range of contrast values is given by the following transducer function that is derived and approximated by Mantiuk et al. [MMS06]: T(G) = 54:09288 G0:41850; (6) with the following properties: T(0) = 0 and T(Gthreshold ) = 1;(7) The transducer function estimates the HVS response to physical contrast in Just Noticeable Difference (JND) units. Thus for a given contrast threshold, Gthreshold, a transducer value equals 1 JND. It is important to note that this measure holds for suprathreshold measurements, since it not only estimates the detection, but also the magnitude of change. Communications & Multimedia Lab

27. Just Noticeable Difference The approximation given by Equation (6) has been derived with the assumption of 1% contrast detection threshold, i.e. Gthreshold=log10(1:01). Although such an assumption is often made in image processing for LDR, the detection threshold depends on an adapting luminance level and is described by the Threshold Versus Intensity (TVI) function [CIE81].

30. SEGA SATURN by SEGA SEGA Saturn was shipping in Nov. , 1994. It is the next generation of SEGA TV-game machine. Its existence acclaims the new age of 3DCG, and brought this age into your house ! Let's see what it is : • CPU : Sega Saturn uses a pair of SH2 , a kind of 32-bit RISC processor by Hitachi, for computing and video output, and one M68000 for audio output. The total computing ability is about 56 MIPS. • RAM : Sega Saturn uses 2MB as main RAM, 1.5 MB as V-RAM, 512 KB as Audio Output and another 512 MB as CD-ROM buffer. Total RAM used is 4 MB! • 3DCG : Sega Saturn has build-in hardware supporting 3DCG, of course. It is able to display ( compute ) about 200,000 polygons, including flat-shading, gouraud-shading, and texture-mapping. It uses Z-sort to solve the problem of Z value, and about 3 light sources. • 2DCG : Sega Saturn also supports 2D image processing. It can display 1 layer of sprite in front of 5 layers of BG, including scaling, stretching, and rotating (by 3 axis). In addition, SS could support animation of its own format (about 2/3 screen sized). • CD-ROM : Double-speed CD-ROM driver. Of course it can be used to display normal CD(usually used as BGM), Photo CD, CD-G, and video CD(MPEG1,optional). Communications & Multimedia Lab

39. Microsoft Xbox Kinect Kinect is a motion sensing input device by Microsoft for the Xbox 360 video game console and Windows PCs. Based around a webcam-style add-on peripheral for the Xbox 360 console, it enables users to control and interact with the Xbox 360 without the need to touch a game controller, through a natural user interface using gestures and spoken commands. The project is aimed at broadening the Xbox 360's audience beyond its typical gamer base. Kinect competes with the Wii Remote Plus and PlayStation Move with PlayStation Eye motion controllers for the Wii and PlayStation 3 home consoles, respectively. A version for Windows was released on February 1, 2012. Microsoft released a non-commercial Kinect software development kit for Windows 7 on June 16, 2011, with a commercial version following at a later date. This SDK will allow .NET developers to write Kinecting apps in C++/CLI, C#, or Visual Basic .NET. Communications & Multimedia Lab

43. Sony PlayStation 3 PlayStation 3 slim (PS3 CECH-2000 model) is the revamped version of Sony's seventh generation video game console - PS3, which was launched by Sony Computer Entertainment in 2009. Other than the new sleek design, these PS3 slim console also boasts of potent mix of new (such as the removable hard drive) and old features (such as online gaming, a high-definition optical disc format and Blu-ray Disc technology), which make gaming easier and interesting. While the first two consoles of these series were armed with 120GB and 250GB HDD, they were eventually discontinued to make way for the two existing models - the 160GB slim and the 320GB slim in 2010. (The 320GB PS3 slim though, is only available as a part of the PS3 bundle.) As with their predecessors, both models come with a Blu-ray drive which can be used for multimedia purposes as well. Some of the most popular PS3 games include Medal of Honor - Frontline, Far Cry 2, Demon's Souls, MAG, inFamous, Resident Evil, Kill Zone 2, etc. At the same time, the addition of PlayStation Move which facilitates motion gaming has also added to the popularity of PS3 slim console.

45. Sony PlayStation Move The PlayStation Move combines a video camera with a physical controller packed with motion-sensing electronics, making it the technological cross between Kinect and the Nintendo Wii. The Move Motion Controller, or "wand," combines a gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetic sensor (a sort of digital "compass" that uses the Earth's magnetic field to determine the controller's orientation) to track the controller in three dimensions, while the glowing ball at the end gives the PlayStation Eye camera a visual reference for handling aiming, cursor movement, and other motion. Like Kinect, PlayStation Move requires room to function; Sony recommends 5 to 9 feet between the player and the PlayStation Eye, but you can play anywhere from 2 to 10 feet of the camera.
