Virtual reality based time and motion study with support for real walking
(2016)Procedia CIRP ~ Factories of the Future in the digital environment - Proceedings of the 49th CIRP Conference on Manufacturing SystemsManual operations in mass production are important cost drivers. Thus, tools like the MTM (Methods-time Measurement) – a time and motion study method – were introduced, which are nowadays established in industry for evaluation and improvement of production facilities. In this method, cardboard engineering is used to build simplified physical mock-ups of machines or production lines, in which the manual working process can be simulated. ...Conference Paper -
Real walking in virtual environments for factory planning and evaluation
(2016)Procedia CIRP ~ 6th CIRP Conference on Assembly Technologies and Systems (CATS)Nowadays, buildings or production facilities are designed using specialized design software and building information modeling tools help to evaluate the resulting virtual mock-up. However, with current, primarily desktop based tools it is hard to evaluate human factors of such a design, for instance spatial constraints for workforces. This paper presents a new tool for factory planning and evaluation based on virtual reality that allows ...Conference Paper -

Postural Stability Analysis In Virtual Reality Using the HTC Vive
(2016)Proceedings of the 22nd ACM Conference on Virtual Reality Software and Technology (VRST '16)Postural stability is an important measure for many medical diseases such as Parkinson. In the last years, research focused on using inexpensive and portable devices to measure postural stability, while the visual targets were physical objects in the environment. Sensing balancing boards were used to measure stance forces, while movements of the upper body were not taken into account. Within this paper, postural stability was measured ...Conference Paper -
Preliminary Environment Mapping for Redirected Walking
(2018)2018 IEEE Conference on Virual Reality and 3D User Interfaces (VR)Redirected walking applications allow a user to explore large virtual environments in a smaller physical space by employing so-called redirection techniques. To further improve the immersion of a virtual experience, path planner algorithms were developed which choose redirection techniques based on the current position and orientation of the user. In order to ensure a reliable performance, planning algorithms depend on accurate position ...Conference Paper
