Experience culture in virtual reality (SocialSTAGE-VR)

An research and experimentation platform for the use of virtual reality for the experience of stage events

Video streaming of real stage content into virtual environments

Project description

SocialSTAGE-VR is a research and experimentation platform for the use of
virtual reality for the experience of stage events. As a young and
creative team of developers and scientists from different companies and
research institutions, we are exploring questions together with artists:
How will we consume cultural content, such as music and concerts, in
the future and how will new interaction technologies blur the lines
between social media and artistic content?

There are no ready-made tools and applications for implementing virtual stage events. To create unforgettable experiences, major technical problems have to be overcome. The Projekt developed solutions to create virtual event spaces, digitize real locations, transfer real stage performances into virtual environments, and to create our own virtual embodiment as a basis for shared experiences.
