Abstract

Virtual Interaction refers to a low immersion virtual reality system that allows users to participate in a scene with computer-generated graphics. The system's purpose is to provide interactive environments that allow physical activity for individuals with disabilities. This extended abstract briefly describes the current silhouette-based system and discusses the ongoing work of improving the system with the incorporation of a robust skin detection algorithm. Virtual Interaction with only the user's hands is discussed with regard to both two and three-dimensional environments.
