| Research Abstract |
We studied on a new method for building a virtual environment seamlessly bridging virtual and real worlds. Our approach is to making a realistic virtual environment by exploring and finding a boundary giving observers unpleasant sensations between them. We designed and developed a technical framework and software for realizing the concept of "boundary discovery" based on an optimization technique called interactive evolutionary computation. We enhanced the method by integrating different fields' knowledge and findings such as cognitive science and immunology. We evaluated our approach by applying the implemented method to some application systems such as the texture representations of 3D virtual objects and recording and carrying on the tradition of craftsmanship, and conducted empirical experiments.
