LTouchIt at the WSCG 2011

We will present a full paper at the International Conferences in Central Europe on Computer Graphics, Visualization and Computer Vision (WSCG) about the preliminary work on a virtual LEGO modeler for multi-touch surfaces - LTouchIt. The LTouchIt project is a follow-up of the LSketchIt project, which focused on virtual LEGO modeling using calligraphic interfaces and 3D retrieval.

JLF Lab

I am currently involved in the "João Lourenço Fernandes" (JLF) Lab at IST Taguspark. In this lab are develop research on immersive and virtual reality, multimodal and new interaction paradigms, amongs some other topics. In the picture below you can see me wearing the Natural Point tracking suit (hat included), holding the SqueezyBall 6-DOF wireless interaction device and the e-Magin HMD glasses.
