Project description
Video conferencing and mixed reality are both forms of communication but based on very different technologies. Video conferencing does not provide an in-person feel to meetings and has several other drawbacks. In contrast, mixed reality has emerged as a technology that can provide a genuine feeling of presence, and better collaboration tools. The EU-funded CORTEX² project will bridge the divide between widespread video conferencing tools and innovative XR-based solutions to democratise the adoption of next-generation eXtended Reality tele-cooperation by industrial sectors and SMEs. The initiative will use and extend the widespread Rainbow teleconferencing solution from Alcatel Lucent Enterprise to allow for fully interactive XR-based cooperation. This will be demonstrated in three pilots: industrial production, business meetings, and remote training respectively.
