multimodal Intelligent Virtual Agents (IVAs). By representing artificial intelligence (AI) in humanoid form, IVAs have significant potential to transform immersive extended reality (XR) environments by facilitating natural and engaging human-AI interactions, however tools for designing and deploying IVAs in research settings are still limited. Anthropomorphic AI enables developers to easily create and manage multimodal and socially capable IVAs by offering a range of features, including speech, gaze, gestures, facial expressions, and visual perception. Developers can select and combine different foundation models, including speech-to-text (STT) and text-to-speech (TTS) systems, and adapt system prompts to guide interactions. Additionally, the toolkit includes features such as proximity detection, trajectory-based action recognition, and vision-based multimodal prompting, all designed to support more natural human-IVA interactions within immersive XR environments.     \",\"company\":\"Human Computer Interaction Group, University of Hamburg\",\"hall\":\"P\",\"booth\":\"R5\",\"video\":\"https:\\\/\\\/youtu.be\\\/O11JqiE6tZ0\",\"pays\":null,\"featured_image\":\"https:\\\/\\\/laval-virtual.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2026\\\/02\\\/Human-Computer-Interaction-Department-of-Computer-Science-University-of-Hamburg.png\",\"category\":\"#ReVolution\"},\"40927\":{\"title\":\"Generative Anamorphoses via Laplacian Pyramid Warping\",\"description\":\"We present LookingGlass, an interactive experience that gives a generative twist to classical anamorphoses\\u2014illusions that reveal their true form only from a specific viewpoint or through a mirror or lens.

We consider the interactive nature that allows users to confirm their own predictions firsthand to be a defining feature of this research. Furthermore, by utilizing XR technology, this research can present knowledge and information to users more intuitively. Operations involving sequences are also more easily and naturally executed. Through device control, users can efficiently understand and observe knowledge about large-scale natural phenomena that cannot be replicated in a classroom setting.

As a result, co-play becomes difficult to scale, and meaningful participation is often limited to trained performers. Ripple Resonance responds to this structural limitation by introducing a system-level interaction framework that enables participants of different roles and skill levels to intuitively enter a multisensory, scalable collective performance state.The system consists of three independently operable yet mutually responsive modules, each contributing to the formation of a shared state through embodied interaction:Wind Tides Box is a physical, airflow-driven instrument that modulates the shared environment through fog, light, and sound.

Wearable haptic devices are still commonly categorised by feedback type: kinesthetic (often with simple vibrotactile feedback) or tactile, offering vibrations, textures, or thermal effects.
