Use of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) to address four of the “National Academy of Engineering Grand Challenges for Engineering in the 21st Century”.

Type of degree.

Computer Science and Software Engineering

Engineering is the shrewd application of science to the exploitation and transformation of natural resources for the benefit of humanity. Humankind has always resorted to engineering in order to overcome limitations, overpower challenges and improve life on the planet. In recent years, immersive technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) have gained a lot of popularity. The rapid development of AR/VR technology has the potential to help a broad range of sectors, with education, healthcare, manufacturing and retail among the most obvious beneficiaries. In this thesis, the authors discuss developing of applications using immersive technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) and their significance in addressing some of the engineering challenges identified by the National Academy of Engineering. The aim of this study is to develop two augmented reality (AR) and one virtual reality (VR) applications, as well as to assess their effectiveness in terms of interaction, functionality, usability, and user experience. These apps can be used to construct an immersive learning environment, locate and compare drinking water supplies in Auburn University (AU) buildings, visualize the Sun's position and direction at a given time and place, and take a virtual tour of our solar system.

Towards Everyday-Use Augmented Reality Eyeglasses

Add to collection, downloadable content.

• Affiliation: College of Arts and Sciences, Department of Computer Science
• Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR) are emerging as next generation personal and social computing platforms. However, for AR and VR displays to be practical and mass adopted, they need to be compact and lightweight, and should support focal accommodation like everyday prescription eyeglasses. The existing commercial displays however are bulky and do not support focus cues for virtual imagery. Furthermore, users without normal vision need to wear additional pairs of prescription correction glasses to see well-focused real imagery, which is an unreasonable and awkward requirement. In my dissertation, I focus on three key areas for augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR): 1) high-quality 2D and 3D holographic near-eye display approaches compensating for severe real-world aberrations and supporting high resolution, 2) auto-focus eyeglasses for viewing both real and virtual imagery, and 3) wearable eye tracker capable of sensing pupil position, gaze direction, and optical accommodative state. The only demonstrated compact, wide-angle eyeglasses-style near-eye display (NED) for augmented/virtual imagery uses holographic techniques. However, holographic NEDs suffer from a small eyebox and poor image quality with debilitating artifacts. To overcome these, I developed a new holographic rendering framework which directly optimizes for 2D and 3D phase-only holograms, compensating for any hardware and optical aberrations in the display, producing state-of-the-art high quality true holographic imagery. The auto-focus capability is achieved by using focus-tunable lenses with focal power dynamically adjusted to also consider the user's prescription, thereby allowing for well-focused viewing of both real and synthetic imagery. This requires knowing not only the vergence but also the accommodation state of the user's eye at any instant. To achieve this, I developed comprehensive 3D eye tracking of both eyes, by analyzing the Purkinje reflections from multiple layers in the eye's cornea and lens, using a multitude of cameras and infrared LEDs, and thereby directly estimating the dynamically changing shape and focus of the eye's crystalline lens.

Applications of augmented reality in the construction industry public deposited.

A big driver in the construction industry, like most others, is productivity. Naturally, everyone would like to get the maximum possible output, after providing the minimum possible input. With the growing age of technology, we are beginning to see more technology efforts aimed at being used as a tool for construction and construction related activities. A few examples of such technologies include the use of drones, GPS mapping, and virtual and augmented reality (VR & AR).This paper is an exploration of current and historical applications of augmented reality, specifically how these technologies have been used and are currently being used to display information. The aim is to learn more about some of the limitations and potential opportunities of using AR to display information. Furthermore, what effects does AR support have on user performance and behavior. We will begin this process by learning the definition and origin of AR and other related technologies. We will then look at how AR technologies have specifically been implemented in the construction and similar industries.

This paper also provides a tutorial on the development of an AR application. An AR application was developed for two reasons. One, to serve as proof of concept for our research team and second to explore how having access to an AR application affects a user’s performance and behavior. The goal was to develop an application that could both display details and information that could be toggled on and off using virtual buttons, and also to generate a 3D model that could be viewed from any angle, allowing the user to understand the complete geometry of the 3D model. This exploration serves as the first of many endeavors the University’s research teamhopes to undertake in the field of virtual and augmented reality.

Master Thesis: Immersive Surface Boxplots - Exploring Uncertainty of Scientific Data in VR

Scientific data is the basis for the analysis of complex physical phenomena such as meteorological or biological processes. However, while often ignored, models and measurements typically incorporate uncertainties. Visualizing such uncertainties is crucial for domain experts to truly understand these phenomena, as well as gain a sense of trust for the reliability of the data. While approaches exist, that help communicate such uncertainties in ensembles, such as Surface Boxplots (Genton et al. 2014), these are typically made for classic desktop environments. In this thesis, we want to explore, how the additional dimensions provided by immersive displays could be used to provide an alternative, more interactive and intuitive encoding of uncertainties in 2D scalar field ensembles. This includes designing and implementing an immersive application and evaluating the solution in an appropriate user or expert study. Further details will be discussed in a meeting.

Construction Innovation

ISSN : 1471-4175

Article publication date: 17 May 2022

Issue publication date: 8 June 2022

This study aims to present a comprehensive review, critical analysis and implications of the augmented reality (AR) application and implementation in the construction industry arena and demonstrate the gaps along with the future research agenda.

Design/methodology/approach

The construction industry has been under pressure to improve its productivity, quality and sustainability. However, the conventional methods and technologies cannot respond to this industry's ever-growing demands while emerging and innovative technologies such as building information modelling, artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR) and AR have emerged and can be used to address this gap. AR application has been acknowledged as one of the most impactful technologies in the construction digitalization process. However, a comprehensive understanding of the AR application, its areas of effectiveness and overarching implications in a construction project life cycle remain vague. Therefore, this study uses an integration of systematic literature review and thematic analysis techniques to identify the phases of a construction project life cycle in which AR is the most effective, the current issues and problems of the conventional methods, the augmented parameters, the immediate effects of using AR on each phase and, eventually, the overall influence of AR on the entire project. Nvivo qualitative data analysis software was used to code, categorize and create themes from the collected data. The result of data analysis was used to develop four principal frameworks of the AR applications – design and constructability review session; construction operation; construction assembly; and maintenance and defect inspection and management – and the gap analysis along with the future research agenda.

The findings of this study indicated that the application of AR can be most effective in the following four stages of a project life cycle: design and constructability review session; construction operation; construction assembly; and site management and maintenance, including site management and defect inspection. The results also showed that the application of AR technology in the construction industry can align and address building industry objectives by various elements such as: reducing project costs through the application of digital technologies, saving time, meeting deadlines and reduction in project delays through integrated, live scheduling and increased safety and quality of the construction work and workers.

Research limitations/implications

One of the main limitations of this study was the lack of materials and resources on the downfalls and shortcomings of using immersive technologies, AR, in the construction project life cycle. In addition, most of the reviewed papers were focused on the experiments with simulations and in the lab environment, rather than real experiments in real construction sites and projects. This may cause limitations and inaccuracy of the collected and reported data.

Practical implications

The results of this study indicated that the application of AR technology in construction industry can align and address building industry objectives by various elements such as: reducing project costs through the application of digital technologies; saving time; meeting deadlines and reduction in project delays through integrated, live scheduling; and increased safety and quality of the construction work and workers.

Social implications

Application of AR in the various stages of a project life cycle can increase the safety and quality of the construction work and workers.

Originality/value

The reviewed literature indicated that substantial research and studies are yet to be done, to demonstrate the full capacity and impact of these emerging technologies in the field. The collected data and literature indicate that amongst the digital technologies, AR is one of the least researched topics in the field. Therefore, this study aims to examine the application of AR in construction projects’ life cycle to identify the stages and practices of a project life cycle where AR and its capabilities can be exploited and to identify the respective problems and issues of the conventional methods and the ways in which AR can address those shortcomings. Furthermore, this study focuses on identifying the overall outcome of AR applications in a construction project in terms of cost and time efficiency, process precision and safety.

The future of surgery: Using augmented reality goggles in the operating room

Uc davis health surgeons use augmented reality during surgery and as education tool.

UC Davis Health surgeons are leading the way in using augmented reality goggles, which can vastly improve surgical procedures. 

Augmented reality is an innovative technology that allows you to see how something may look without physically holding it or seeing it. It has the potential to influence how we consume entertainment, communicate, engage with digital content and receive our health care.

It’s related to virtual reality — but extends the possibilities, according to E. Bradley Strong , professor and vice-chair of otolaryngology.

“Virtual reality replaces your real surroundings with a completely virtual environment, while augmented reality incorporates digital imagery within the real environment,” Strong explained. “Extended reality is an umbrella term we like to use to describe them both.”

Using extended reality in surgery

Surgeons within the Departments of Otolaryngology , Neurological Surgery and Orthopedic Surgery have established the UC Davis Medical Extended Reality (MXR) Research Group. It is part of the 3D Printing and Visualization Lab at UC Davis Health. They are the first to use extended reality during surgery within the health system.

The UC Davis MXR research group is collaborating with outside companies, including Xironetic, to be the first in the world to apply augmented reality overlays to a range of complex surgical procedures.

To do this, surgeons wear augmented reality goggles during surgery. They project 3D computed tomography (CT) and MRI scans that overlay critical information directly onto the surgeon's field of view. The goggles help the surgeon:

• Plan the surgical approach
• Visualize hidden vascular and bone structures
• Localize instrumentation and implants
• Project drilling and cutting guides

“The goggles help us transition our virtual surgical plans to the operating room,” Strong said. “It allows us to better view what is in the operative field and visualize objects that otherwise would be very difficult to see in a precise manner.”

Educating patients with extended reality

Surgeons within the UC Davis MXR research group are also using extended reality to better educate patients before surgery. They can provide the patient with an immersive and interactive experience, making the complex medical procedure more understandable.

“Physicians spend years learning how to piece together many 2D images and then visualize them three-dimensionally,” said Strong. “It is impossible to ask patients to do the same thing in 30 minutes. By using this technology, we can give our patients a clear view of what will happen during their surgery.”

The goggles help us transition our virtual surgical plans into the surgery to the operating room. Thus, it allows us to better view what is in the operative field and visualize objects that otherwise would be very difficult to see in a precise manner.” — E. Bradley Strong

Before his surgical procedure to fix the orbital fracture around his right eye, Richard Odom was able to experience the benefits of extended reality.

During his previous visit to UC Davis Medical Center , the surgical team explained to him what his surgery involved and how they planned to fix his fracture. But, with extended reality, Odom took a trip inside his own skull and saw for himself.

After donning a headset connected to the extended reality system, Odom could see a floating 3D image of his skull.

With a point of his finger, Odom could hide the layer of skin over his bone and see where an implant would be placed within his orbit.

“It's great to see that the implant won't be just floating around in there,” said Odom. “I feel better knowing exactly where it will be.”

Extended reality as a teaching tool

Due to its flexibility in integrating physical and virtual environments, UC Davis Health has also started to use extended reality in educating fellows, residents and medical students.

This means that what trainees previously would have seen as a picture in a book, they are now able to see as a 3D object in the room that they can manipulate and visualize.

“It is exciting to see the light bulb go on for them when they are seeing inside the intracranial cavity and looking at an implant that might be malpositioned,” said Strong. “We have found this technology to be a very powerful educational tool.”

Future for extended reality at UC Davis Health

The new technology will also have a home in Aggie Square , the leading-edge research and innovation hub that is currently under construction on the UC Davis Health Sacramento campus. The 3D Printing and Visualization Lab, MXR research group, and undergraduate campus TEAM lab ( UC Davis Biomedical Engineering ) are teaming up. Together, they’ll form the leading Visualization and 3D Printing lab/research group in Northern California.

“Extended reality is going to get more and more pervasive throughout medicine,” added Strong. “As the technology continues to grow, it's use will expand to many different areas of surgery, education and become pervasive into all areas of our medical care.”
