Abstract
With the recent advances and ubiquity of various display systems, one may configure an augmented space with a variety of display systems, such as 3D monitors, projectors, mobile devices, holographic displays, and even non-visual displays such as speakers and haptic devices. In this paper, we present a software support platform for representing and executing a dynamic augmented 3D scene with heterogeneous display systems. We extend the conventional scene graph so that a variety of modal display rendering (aside from just visual projection) can be supported. The execution environment supports multi-threading of the rendering processes for the multiple display systems and their synchronization. As multiple and heterogeneous displays, in effect representing a particular set objects in the augmented environment, are scattered in the environment, additional perception based spatial calibration method is also proposed.
