H. Kaufmann:
"Applications of Mixed Reality";
Holzhausen, Wien, 2010, ISBN: 978-3-85493-176-8; 120 S.

This thesis gives an overview of the author´s scientific work in previous
years. It reflects the author´s ambition to develop applications of mixed
reality which are beneficial to society as a whole or to specific groups of
people.
Providing and deploying high-end mixed reality hardware and software
applications to multiple users and larger target groups finally raises questions
of scalability, robustness, design and affordability of the technology involved.
They trigger scientific questions and developments in return. All of these
aspects will be touched in this work.
The first part of the introduction defines the scientific domain and various
problems therein followed by a discussion of the author´s contribution in
this area. The individual publications that constitute the remainder of the
thesis are discussed and put in context.
