Team from Steven Feiner’s lab wins Grand Prize at NYC Media Lab Summit

“Travel in Large-Scale Head-Worn VR” teleports users through virtual environments by allowing them to determine orientation in advance. Another project, “Remote Collaboration in AR and VR Using Virtual Replicas” won a third place finish.

Animating wet hair: Researchers model interplay of forces between liquid and hair

A Multi-Scale Model for Simulating Liquid-Hair Interactions describes innovations for capturing liquid onto hairs, modeling the flow along hairs, inducing cohesion, and enabling dripping.

Paper coauthored by Steven Feiner earns inaugural Early Innovator Award at ISWC 2017

“A touring machine: Prototyping 3D mobile augmented reality systems for exploring the urban environment” (1997) presented the first outdoor AR system using GPS position tracking with a see-through head-worn display.
