Project description Organic and large-area electronics, visualisation and display systems Show the project objective Hide the project objective Virtual environments hold the promise to provide a shared space in which such collaborative interactions of multiple users with virtual 3D models could occur as easily and smoothly as they would in the real world. Large projection-based stereoscopic displays are the most successful incarnation of such immersive virtual environments. These systems use a fixed view point or track the head position of a single user and compute a stereoscopic image pair for that point of view. Unfortunately, when non-tracked users see these images, the virtual environment may appear severely distorted and it changes shape when users are moving.The project IMVIS will carry out research to develop novel projection-based stereoscopic multi-view systems for co-located collaborative 3D displays for multiple users. The main challenges of the project are: develop projection and projector technology, synchronisation methods and high precision alignment algorithms for multi-projector multi-view approaches for single screen and tiled display configurations develop wireless high speed active and active-passive stereo glasses develop, build and evaluate a commercial quality projection-based stereoscopic multi-view display system for at least six tracked users develop, build and evaluate a prototypical projection-based stereoscopic multi-view system for at least 10 tracked people develop build and evaluate wireless input device prototypes and interaction techniques for collaborative multi-user interfaces in co-located multi-view environments develop, implement and evaluate collaborative automotive application scenarios Fields of science engineering and technologymaterials engineeringengineering and technologyelectrical engineering, electronic engineering, information engineeringinformation engineeringtelecommunicationsradio technology Programme(s) FP7-ICT - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Information and communication technologies Topic(s) ICT-2007.3.2 - Organic and large area electronics, visualisation and display systems Call for proposal FP7-ICT-2007-1 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme CP - Collaborative project (generic) Coordinator FRAUNHOFER GESELLSCHAFT ZUR FORDERUNG DER ANGEWANDTEN FORSCHUNG EV Address Hansastrasse 27c 80686 Munchen Germany See on map Region Bayern Oberbayern München, Kreisfreie Stadt Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Andrea Zeumann (Ms) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window EU contribution € 540 198,00 Participants (5) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all ZINK ARMIN - DIGITAL IMAGE AZ Germany EU contribution € 411 600,00 Address Dr.-ringens-strasse 7 51491 Overath See on map Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Armin Zink (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window BAUHAUS-UNIVERSITAET WEIMAR Germany EU contribution € 387 000,00 Address Geschwister scholl strasse 8 99423 Weimar See on map Region Thüringen Thüringen Weimar, Kreisfreie Stadt Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Martin Kagel (Mr) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window CENTRO RICERCHE FIAT SCPA Italy EU contribution € 162 550,00 Address Strada torino 50 10043 Orbassano See on map Region Nord-Ovest Piemonte Torino Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Massimo Casali (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window PERSONAL SPACE TECHNOLOGIES BV Netherlands EU contribution € 273 900,00 Address Falckstraat 53 1017 VV Amsterdam See on map Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Marc Lausberg (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window LC-TEC DISPLAYS AB Sweden EU contribution € 217 500,00 Address Tunavagen 281 781 73 Borlange See on map Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact JESPER OSTERMAN (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window
