XR Technologies (Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality and Mixed Reality)

​

[  ] Workshop Description

A Comprehensive Introduction to XR Technologies and their application in Architecture & Design. XR (eXtended Reality) is an umbrella term used to describe all real+virtual experiences and interactive technologies such as AR (Augmented Reality), VR (Virtual Reality) and MR (Mixed Reality). Tutor would share theoretical background about the subject and move to live demonstration of the technologies with an aim to impart the skills remotely through an interactive setup. Multiple tools such as Augment, Artivive, Unity3D, Vuforia, Unreal Engine, Project Shark, Fologram, GMetri, etc would be showcased in an informal session. Workshop participants would gain a comprehensive exposure to XR Technologies and there would be a practice assignment for creating your own augmented reality (AR) tool-kit using your own design.
