Thema: DeskVR: Seamless Integration of Virtual Reality into Desk-based Data Analysis Workflows
Abstract:
In this work, we are looking into the possibilities and unique challenges
virtual reality today offers for (office) desk-based scenarios, as
they are ubiquitous in data analysis.
We characterize the scenario, introduce the term deskVR, and name
the technical challenges that come with it. Furthermore, we tackle
specific demands in two pillars of interaction in virtual reality,
selection & manipulation, and navigation. Then, we investigate
passive and active methods to prevent and reduce cybersickness, as
for us, tackling cybersickness is one if not the most critical tasks
that have to be solved to integrate virtual reality into everyday life
successfully. Finally, we apply the methods and findings made in this
thesis to a prototypical application framework for immersive 3D
graph exploration, serving as proof of concept for the integrability of
virtual reality into desk-based working scenarios. In the graph
visualization domain, we then also propose new vertex positioning
and edge bundling methods that address challenges arising with the
performed up-projection into 3D interactive space.
