Mechanical Design and Control of a High-Bandwidth Shape Memory Alloy Tactile Display
: We have constructed a tactile shape display which can be used to convey small-scale shapes in teleoperation and virtual environments. A line of 10 pins spaced 2 mm on center are ...

Surflex: a programmable surface for the design of tangible interfaces
In this paper we describe Surflex, a programmable surface for the design and visualization of physical forms. Surflex combines the physical properties of shape-memory alloy and fo...

Automatic registration of overlapping 3D point clouds using closest points
While the SoftAssign algorithm imposes a two-way constraint embedded into the deterministic annealing scheme and the EMICP algorithm imposes a one-way constraint, they represent t...

Estimation of Error in Curvature Computation on Multi-Scale Free-Form Surfaces
A novel technique for multi-scale curvature computation on a free-form 3-D surface is presented. This is achieved by convolving local parametrisations of the surface with 2-D Gauss...

The Museum of Pure Form: touching real statues in an immersive virtual museum
In the Museum of Pure Form, we explore a novel way of presenting art to visitors of a museum, allowing them to virtually touch artefacts in a virtual museum. In order to realise t...
