About this Event
Volumetric video is considered as one of the major technological breakthroughs for highly realistic representation of humans in eXtended Reality applications. This technology becomes especially important in use cases, where convincing and natural representation of humans and their emotions is required. It significantly paves the way to overcome the uncanny valley for representation of digitized humans.
This talk will focus on the state of the art of volumetric video as well as potential future directions. Details on various volumetric capture systems as well as insights on overall volumetric video production and processing workflows are presented. An overview on interactive volumetric video solutions, volumetric video encoding and streaming will be given. While keeping a strong technical focus, the talk will be enriched by examples from long years of scientific and practical experience including results from most recent productions.
Dr. Oliver Schreer is head of “Immersive Media & Communication” research group at “Vision & Imaging Technologies” department at Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute (HHI) and Associate Professor at Technical University Berlin. His main research fields are 3D video processing and immersive and interactive media services and applications exploiting Augmented and Virtual Reality technologies.
