S ubsurface utilities are important assets that need to be perceived during any construction
activities. Positioning and visualizing the subsurface utilities before the construction work …

Object detection is an important topic for visual data processing in the visual computing
area. Although a number of approaches have been studied, it still remains a challenge …

One of the main goals of many augmented reality applications is to provide a seamless
integration of a real scene with additional virtual data. To fully achieve that goal, such …

Augmented reality (AR) technologies create an immersive environment by augmenting the
real world with rendered virtual objects. One of the key requirements of an AR system is to …

Civil engineering is a primary domain for new augmented reality technologies. In this work,
the area of subsurface utility engineering is revisited, and new methods tackling well-known …

Situated visualizations are a type of visualization where data is presented next to its physical
referent (ie, the physical object, space, or person it refers to), often using augmented-reality …

We rely on our sight when manipulating objects. When objects are occluded, manipulation
becomes difficult. Such occluded objects can be shown via augmented reality to re-enable …

An important application of augmented reality (AR) is the design of interfaces that reveal
parts of the real world to which the user does not have line of sight. The design space for …

Accurate and informative hand-object collision feedback is of vital importance for hand
manipulation in virtual reality (VR). However, to our best knowledge, the hand movement …

This research aims to overcome the difficulties associated with visualizing underground
utilities by proposing six interactive visualization methods that utilize Mixed Reality (MR) …
