Gestural Interaction for Virtual Reality Environments through Data Gloves

by G. Rodriguez, N. Jofré, Y. Alvarado, J. Fernández and R. Guerrero

Advances in Science, Technology and Engineering Systems Journal, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page # 284–290, 2017; DOI: 10.25046/aj020338

Abstract:

In virtual environments, virtual hand interactions play a key role in interactivity and realism allowing to perform fine motions. Data glove is widely used in Virtual Reality (VR) and through simulating a human hands natural anatomy (Avatar’s hands) in its appearance and motion is possible to interact with the environment and virtual objects. Recently, hand…

Operational Efficiencies and Simulated Performance of Big Data Analytics Platform over Billions of Patient Records of a Hospital System

by Dillon Chrimes, Belaid Moa, Mu-Hsing (Alex) Kuo and Andre Kushniruk

Advances in Science, Technology and Engineering Systems Journal, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page # 23–41, 2017; DOI: 10.25046/aj020104

Abstract:

Big Data Analytics (BDA) is important to utilize data from hospital systems to reduce healthcare costs. BDA enable queries of large volumes of patient data in an interactively dynamic way for healthcare. The study objective was high performance establishment of interactive BDA platform of hospital system. A Hadoop/MapReduce framework was established at University of Victoria…
