Resumen
The thesis contributes in three Virtual Reality areas: ¿ Visual perception: a calibration algorithm is proposed to estimate stereo projection parameters in head-mounted displays, so that correct shapes and distances can be perceived, and calibration and control procedures are proposed to obtain desired accommodation stimuli at different virtual distances.¿ Immersive scenarios: the thesis analyzes several use cases demanding varying degrees of immersion and special, innovative visualization solutions are proposed to fulfil their requirements. Contributions focus on machinery simulators, weather radar volumetric visualization and manual arc welding simulation.¿ Ubiquitous visualization: contributions are presented to scenarios where users access interactive 3D applications remotely. The thesis follows the evolution of Web3D standards and technologies to propose original visualization solutions for volume rendering of weather radar data, e-learning on energy efficiency, virtual e-commerce and visual product configurators.
