Graphics & User Interfaces

Columbia researchers presenting eight papers at this year’s SIGGRAPH

SIGGRAPH 2016 was held July 24-26 at Anaheim's convention center.

Method reduces VR sickness by subtly altering user’s field of view in response to “motion”

The research, done by Steven K. Feiner and Ajoy Fernandes, has application for consumer head-worn VR displays.

Invisible, machine-readable AirCode tags make tagging objects part of 3D-fabrication process

To uniquely identify and encode information in printed objects, Columbia researchers embed carefully designed air pockets, or AirCode tags, just below the surface of an object. The tags are invisible to people but easily decoded using a conventional camera-projector setup.
