Models of Space in a Mixed-Reality System (2008)
Anthony Steed, Ian Maccoll, Cliff R, Barry Brown, Matthew Chalmers, Chris Greenhalgh
In this paper we discuss the use of models of space in the building of mixed-reality systems. By model of space we mean a geometric or symbolic description associated with a physical space. We...

This paper is about our experiences of space in the Equator project (www.equator.ac.uk), in particular, the way in which multiple spaces, both virtual and physical, can co-exist. By this we mean that...
Come Closer: Encouraging Collaborative Behaviour in a Multimedia Environment (2008)
Abstract. Come Closer describes a combined research and art installation using wearable technology and collaborative interaction to explore and challenge the sense of personal space and proximity to...
Blurring the Boundaries of the Mackintosh Room (2008)
Matthew Chalmers, Barry Brown, Steve Benford, Ruth Conroy, Nick Dalton, Areti Galani, ...
In this paper we describe a prototype interactive system supporting a shared synchronous experience for physical, World Wide Web and virtual reality visitors to an exhibition devoted to the designer...
Device Design for Learning Using (2008)
Place Intuitive Behaviour, Cliff R, Eva Hornecker, Eric Harris, Geraldine Fitzpatrick
this paper we first briefly describe our experiences in the `Ambient Wood', then discuss a related framework [2] which has been applied to the further development of this work, and finally...
Ambient Sounds in the Woods (2008)
Sara Price, Cliff Randell, Cliff R
In this paper we describe research in which we have used sound as part of a mobile multimedia learning experience for children.
Engineering the Immersive Experience to Enhance Presence (2007)
Anthony Steed, Steve Benford, Nick Dalton, Chris Greenhalgh, Ian Maccoll, Cliff R, ...
When designing immersive virtual environments it is important to consider the staging and situation of the experience as well as the content and presentation within the experience. In this paper we...
Particle filters for position sensing with asynchronous ultrasonic beacons (2006)
Henk L. Muller, Michael Mccarthy, Cliff R
Abstract. In this paper we present a user-centric position sensing system that is based on asynchronous, independent ultrasonic beacons. These stationary transmitter units are small, cheap to...
A New Method for Auto-Calibrated Object Tracking (2005)
Paul Duff, Michael Mccarthy, Angus Clark, Henk Muller, Cliff Randell, Cliff R, ...
Ubiquitous computing technologies which are cheap and easy to use are more likely to be adopted by users beyond the ubiquitous computing community. We present an ultrasonic-only tracking system that...
