CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS FREE ACCESSThis paper describes TVML(TV program Making Language) of automatically generating television programs from text-based script. This language describes the contents of a television program using expressions with a high level of abstraction like "title #1" and "zoom-in." The software used to read a script written in TVML and to automatically generate the program video and audio is called the TVML Player. The paper begins by describing TVML language specifications and the TVML Player. It then describes the "external control mode" of the TVML Player that can be used for applying TVML to interactive applications. Finally, it describes the TVML Editor, a user interface that we developed which enables users having no specialized knowledge of computer languages to make TVML scripts. In addition to its role as a television-program production tool, TVML is expected to have a wide range of applications in the network and multimedia fields.View full abstractDownload PDF (1183K) -

CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS FREE ACCESSWith the recent evolutionary progress in network and terminal technologies, current videoconference systems are in the level of practical use. The existing systems, however, would not be fully useful for decision making process since eyes of users can not always be in contact that makes it difficult to read the expression of participants. In this paper, we discuss the principle and the impact of "MONJUnoCHIE System", a videoconference system with eye contact using a special display device called "Glass Vision".View full abstractDownload PDF (878K) -

CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS FREE ACCESSWe have started the field test of the VOD service since April 1996, in Huis Ten Bosch which is one of the famous theme parks in Japan. In three years, total about 100 thousands people have used this VOD system and evaluated it. This test verifies that the VOD system which provides moving picture by MPEG2 via broad bandwidth ATM network has already reached the level of actual use. And also we get the know-how to construct contents, or how to manage network resources and server resources, and we have proposed them.View full abstractDownload PDF (845K) -

CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS FREE ACCESSThough a demand for 3-D CG (Three-Dimensional Computer Graphics) drastically increases, traditional modeling systems for virtual objects are very difficult to handle. Applying VR (Virtual Reality) technology is, however, able to make the modeling systems more efficiently and intuitively. In this paper, traditional modeling operations are analyzed and their problems are clarified. We discuss what can be improved with VR technology. Then, a guideline of merging VR technology into the modeling system is described. A new modeling system is proposed using a CAVE system which is utilized in the latest VR technology. This proposed system aids in creating 3-D objects with high immersion in VEs (Virtual Environments)View full abstractDownload PDF (999K) -

CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS FREE ACCESSIn VEs (virtual environments) such as a CAVE system, there are three impotant operations : executive command decision, object selection and 3-D (three-dimensional) pointing. It is necessary to implement these operations in VEs intuitively and accessibly. In Cave, it is possible for examinees to walk and change their viewpoints freely. Then, the input devices which have excellent portability and rich expression are desired. Speech input satisfies both requirements. It is, however, very difficult for the speech input to indicate an exact point in 3-D space. Therefore an extendable virtual stick is employed and it supports speech input. This paper proposes a user friendly interface using speech and a virtual stick in CAVE system. In this paper, several applications appropriate for the proposed interface are developed. Some problems are pointed out from the applications.View full abstractDownload PDF (1050K) -

CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS FREE ACCESSRecently a study of Virtual-Reality becomes active. Expectation to 3-D reproduction technology rises with it. Electro-holography using Spatial light modulator (SLM) attracts attention, because natural 3-D animated image is provided. In this paper recent development of 3D-TV by Electro-holography is reported. We consider the conditions to holographic TV such as input, transmission and display systems. Also we consider about fast hologram calculation because It is impotant to execute hologram calculation at high speed to realize the real time electro-holography. Then we consider the possibility of real time holography.View full abstractDownload PDF (512K) -

CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS FREE ACCESSWe have been making researches on 3-D displays using computer-generated holograms(CGHs). Our CGHs are binary Fresnel holograms that reconstruct point light sources and are recorded by using high resolution laser printers (image setters).^1 We use an image setter with a resolution of 5080 dots per inch. It is possible to reconstruct CGHs with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) or light bulbs which have small emitting points.^<2, 3, 4> As the resolution of the image setter is not so high, it is better to use a spherical wave as a reference beam. We considered the recordable points objects are restricted by the low resolution, and proposed the multiplex type hologram to reduce the number of point objects recorded in the unit area of the CGH.^5 We proposed a method to make computer-generated color hologram which could reconstruct color point light sources, by combining RGB color filters with the stripe CGHs corresponding to each color.^6 We considered two kinds of gradation method on our binary CGHs. In this paper, we propose a multiple reconstruction method for improving the narrow viewing field.View full abstractDownload PDF (1364K) -
