We present a new interaction handling model for physics-based sound synthesis in virtual environments. A new three-level surface representation for describing object shapes, visib...
In this paper we present a new framework in Augmented Reality context for rapid evaluation of prototypes before manufacture. The design of such prototypes is a time consuming proc...

Advanced, synthetic haptic virtual environments require textured virtual surfaces. We found that texturing smooth surfaces often reduces the system passivity margin of a haptic sim...
