Abstract

Cultural heritage is an important part of our lives, forming our identities through our ancestral roots and social experiences. Preserving these cultural relationships and providing accessibility, availability and knowledge dissemination is paramount for societies to safeguard their history and evolve. Over the years, the cultural heritage sector has been supported by multiple technological innovations, helping to preserve, reconstruct and share historical information in multiple digital forms. As a result of the exponential advances in software, hardware and networking capabilities, and the introduction of emerging technologies such as Robotics, Immersive Technologies, Artificial Intelligence and others, the concept of Intelligent Reality drew a lot of research interest recently. This chapter focuses on emerging Intelligent Reality environments and how such systems can support and enhance experiencing cultural heritage, through a fusion of realities driven by technology and humans. It presents two experimental case studies currently at the forefront of research, that are designed and implemented in controlled laboratory environments to test their efficacy. Through these cases, the chapter explores how to create innovative ways for Cultural Heritage institutions to engage with the public in immersive ways that enable visitors to become present in parallel realities and experience cultural heritage in space and in time.

13. Evaluating Presence and Technology Acceptance of an Intelligent Reality Virtual Museum Prototype

Author

Nisiotis, Louis, Alboul, Lyuba, Nisiotis, Louis, and Alboul, Lyuba

Abstract

Intelligent Reality refers to the fusion of integrated technological innovations to develop complex computing systems aiming to blend the real with digital worlds and enable humans and machines to seamlessly work together leveraging each other’s strengths. This paper presents the results of a study evaluating the user experience of visiting an Intelligent Reality virtual museum prototype in terms of presence, technology acceptance, and environment perceptions, as a small-scale Cyber-Physical-Social Eco-System proof of concept. A virtual reality (VR) system was designed, and a real robot was placed in a technology museum to foster cyber-physical synchronisation, for users to visit and navigate in the environment. The study results revealed high degree of presence achieved by users in the VR world, with positive acceptance of technology and environment evaluation. Most importantly, the results highlighted the importance of presence in such systems and how it relates to acceptance and to the overall users’ perception of a VR world.

14. A Preliminary Exploration of the Learning and Engagement Potential of an Intelligent Virtual Environment

Author

Piki, Andriani, Nisiotis, Louis, Alboul, Lyuba, Piki, Andriani, Nisiotis, Louis, and Alboul, Lyuba

Abstract

This paper presents initial findings from an empirical study utilising an intelligent virtual museum with the aim to explore its learning and engagement capability. The study investigates the participants’ experiences with the environment, their perceptions on its learning and engagement ability, and how they envision future learning scenarios with intelligent virtual environments. Participants found the system interesting, useful, and engaging. Suggestions for improvement highlighted technological, pedagogical, and social aspects which can guide further exploitation of such systems in education.

31. Bulk viscosity of gaseous argon from molecular dynamics simulations

Author

Alboul, Lyuba and Lishchuk, Sergey

Abstract

The bulk viscosity of dilute argon gas is calculated using molecular dynamics simulations in the temperature range 150-500 K and is found to be proportional to density squared in the investigated range of densities 0.001-1 kg m^{-3}. A comparison of the results obtained using Lennard-Jones and Tang-Toennies models of pair interaction potential reveals that the value of the bulk viscosity coefficient is sensitive to the choice of the pair interaction model. The inclusion of the Axilrod-Teller-Muto three-body interaction in the model does not noticeably affect the values of the bulk viscosity in dilute states, contrary to the previously investigated case of dense fluids.

Abstract

The amount of literature on Digital Transformation is staggering—and it keeps growing. Why, then, come out with yet another such document? Moreover, any text aiming at explaining the Digital Transformation by presenting a snapshot is going to become obsolete in a blink of an eye, most likely to be already obsolete at the time it is first published. The FDC Initiative on Digital Reality felt there is a need to look at the Digital Transformation from the point of view of a profound change that is pervading the entire society—a change made possible by technology and that keeps changing due to technology evolution opening new possibilities but is also a change happening because it has strong economic reasons. The direction of this change is not easy to predict because it is steered by a cultural evolution of society, an evolution that is happening in niches and that may expand rapidly to larger constituencies and as rapidly may fade away. This creation, selection by experimentation, adoption, and sudden disappearance, is what makes the whole scenario so unpredictable and continuously changing.

Abstract

This work-in-progress paper describes the development of a conceptually led Cyber-Physical-Social EcoSystem (CPSeS) that seamlessly blends the real with the digital worlds using VR, Robots and Social Networking technologies to support immersive learning. The proposed CPSeS can bring students together by merging the real with virtual social spaces, enabling them to interact with each other, and with real and digital environments through physical and virtual robots. The framework used to design this system provides opportunities for developing innovative interactive systems and educational approaches to support and enhance immersive learning.

Abstract

Fault detection and identification methods (FDI) are an important aspect for ensuring consistent behavior of technical systems. In robotics FDI promises to improve the autonomy and robustness. Existing FDI research in robotics mostly focused on faults in specific areas, like sensor faults. While there is FDI research also on the overarching software system, common data sets to benchmark such solutions do not exist. In this paper we present a data set for FDI research on robot software systems to bridge this gap. We have recorded an HRI scenario with our RoboCup@Home platform and induced diverse empirically grounded faults using a novel, structured method. The recordings include the complete event-based communication of the system as well as detailed performance counters for all system components and exact ground-truth information on the induced faults. The resulting data set is a challenging benchmark for FDI research in robotics which is publicly available.
