Abstract Our project, code named Virtual Imaging Peripheral for Enhanced Reality or VIPER, is an augmented/virtual reality system. It will track a user’s head location and perspective and use this information to find the location of a camera position in a virtual environment. With a pair of video glasses the user would then see the virtual environment at the cameras location. As the user moves around a table top sized environment their actual and virtual perspective changes, allowing them different viewing angles of the virtual space.
Project-Specific Success Criteria • The ability to communicate time stamp data using RF between the base unit and head unit. • The ability to display images to the video glasses. • The ability to calculate estimate of angle and position of head unit using accelerometer, gyroscope, and compass. • An ability to find angle displacement of head relative to IR beacon origin using glasses mounted camera. • An ability to find distance from base to head unit using ultrasonic emitter and receiver.
Commercial Product comparison #1: Vuzix STAR 1200 Augmented Reality System • What we will copy: position and shape of camera package • How ours differs: Calculations and calibrations will be done in separate package • Unique: Our “beacon” will be in its own stand-alone package
Commercial Product comparison #2: VuzixWrap 1200VR Virtual Reality System • What we will copy: packaging/design of glasses • How ours differs: size of package containing sensors will be bigger because of more degrees of freedom(also in same package as camera) • Unique: Our “beacon” will be in its own stand-alone package
Project Packaging Specifications • Our project will have three main packaging componets: • 1. The “head unit” will contain the sensors, IR camera, microcontrollers, ultrasonic receiver, and Xbee module • 2. The “beacon unit” will contain the IR LED, a microcontroller, an ultrasonic emitter array, and the other Xbee module • 3. The “calculation unit” will contain just the microprocessor
Packaging Dimensions • 208 pins, 31.2mmx31.2mm, QFP;AT91SAM9XE256 • 28pins, 8.20mmx10.5mm, SSOP;PIC24FJ6GA002 • 64 pins,12mmx12mm,TQFP;PIC32MX534F06H • 7.62mm height by 11 mm diameter;40TR12B-R • 6mmx6mmx4.5mm; TCM8230MD • 24.38mmx32.94mmx8.12mm, WRL-08664 • 4mmx4mmx0.9mm,QFN(chip);17.78mmx13.97(breakout);ITG-3200 • 3mmx3mmx1mm,QFN(chip);17.78mmx13.97(breakout); MMA8452Q • 13.3mmx14.5mm(breakout); MAG3110 • 82.55mmx82.55mm; 296-25798-ND • Estimated head unit dimensions: 90mmx90mm • Estimated beacon unit dimensions:55mmx55mm
