ABSTRACT
This paper proposes an optical system that can capture a user from the viewpoint of a mid-air CG character. The mid-air imaging system enables us to display a CG character in real space. In order for users to interact with this character, we must observe their behavior from the character's viewpoint. Therefore, we propose a method of capturing from the mid-air image position by arranging a light source display and a camera at a conjugate position using a half mirror, optically transferring them with micro-mirror array plates. The contribution of this system is capturing the full face of a user from the position of the mid-air image.

Interaction of a stereoscopic 3DCG image with motion parallax displayed in mid-air
SA '18: SIGGRAPH Asia 2018 PostersWe propose a novel system that enables a user to see stereoscopic 3DCG images in mid-air and interact with them directly as shown in Figure 1. This system displays 3DCG objects with motion parallax. Thus the user can observe them in mid-air while ...
Levitar: Real Space Interaction through Mid-Air CG Avatar
SA '19: SIGGRAPH Asia 2019 Emerging TechnologiesIn this paper, we propose a system for using computer graphic (CG) avatars to re-design human-to-human interactions in real space. Virtual reality (VR) social networks enable users to interact with each other through CG avatars and to choose their ...
Mid-air interaction with a 3D aerial display
SIGGRAPH '17: ACM SIGGRAPH 2017 Emerging TechnologiesWe present a re-imaged swept volume display enabling mid-air interaction with 3D floating objects without requiring a head-mounted apparatus. The presence of the volume is so strong that everyone reaches out to touch it, at which point the illusion is ...
