The aim of this spring school is to learn about Social XR, as a new medium for communication and collaboration following an interdisciplinary approach, and welcoming students from technology, social sciences, and humanities. In particular, the school will target the following areas:
- 3D Capturing and Modeling realistic avatars, and their behavior in the virtual world;
- Coding, transmission and distribution of volumetric video content, and their optimisation for increasing the QoE;
- Ethics by design, for the development of responsible Social XR experiences;
- Rendering and interaction, including the development of new immersive and multi-sensory experiences;
- Human factors and evaluation, including the assessment and evaluation of experiences and QoE modeling and prediction; and
- Research context, providing insights of a research lab, DIS.
An addition: the morning lectures on 5 and 6 March are open to everyone without registering and will be held in the Turing Room at CWI.
