DIGIREAL Lunch Meeting - Volumetric Capturing - 02 | 03 | 2023

15/3/2023

 
On March 2, the fifth DIGIREAL lunch meeting took place. The subject of this edition will be volumetric capturing. This fast-growing video technique captures a three-dimensional element, such as a person, location or performance for an optimal and immersive viewing experience. 
Guest speaker: Natasja Paulssen, 4DR Studios
​

We invited Natasja Paulssen from 4DR Studios to inspire and inform us about this emerging technology. 4DR Studios is the first and only volumetric video studio in the Netherlands and one of the few high-quality volumetric video studios in the world. From simulating live performances to bringing historical figures to life; Natasja tells us all about the areas of application, the current state of the art and the future of the technology. 

DIGIREAL Lunch Meeting - Smart Interactions - 02 | 02 | 2023

15/3/2023

 
During the fourth DIGIREAL lunch meeting on February 2, experts Mark de Graaf shared his knowledge on smart interactions: interactions in which technology is used to help users achieve their goals in a way that feels as natural as possible. With spoken or written text, image recognition or even gestures. Using a voice command to make a phone call in your care while driving, for example. As algorithms get smarter, what is needed to make them really good? What does that imply for the design of virtual humans, or smart environments?

DIGIREAL Lunch Meeting - Virtual Humans - 01 | 12 | 2022

15/3/2023

 
The December edition of the DIGIREAL online lunch meetings was all about digital humans. We know them from deep fakes and videogames, as virtual fashion models and as virtual humans that assist in training and educational settings. 

To illustrate the wide variety of options within the world of digital humans, we invited the following experts to share their knowledge:
- Carlos Santos is the leader of the VIBE project at Breda University of Applied Sciences. This project develops virtual humans that are realistic digital replicas for conversational AI and medical training. They use real-time rendering, fully integrated text-to-speech, live facial animation and deep learning systems.
- Desiderio Cano Porras is a Postdoctoral Researcher at Tilburg University with a focus on human interaction with virtual humans. How do you built the avatars? How do we perceive them when we interact with them and what barriers do we still need to remove?

Talk of the Town: de kansen van een Digital Twin - 24 | 11 | 2022  [Dutch]

9/11/2022

 
⏱️ Donderdag 24 november | 09:30 uur inloop | Inhoudelijk programma 10:00-12:00 uur met afsluitende lunch.
📍 In de kapel van Breda University of Applied Sciences (BUas), Mgr. Hopmansstraat 2, 4817 JS te Breda

Breda digitaliseert. Dit merken we in ons werkende leven, ons huis, de straat, school, de zorg en ons sociale leven. Technologie is tegenwoordig niet meer weg te denken en maakt steeds meer mogelijk.

Eén van de mogelijkheden om technologie toe te passen is met behulp van een 'Digital Twin'; een virtuele kopie van een stad of object. Hiermee kunnen we situaties, bijvoorbeeld op het gebied van evenementen of mobiliteit, simuleren. En zo zelfs de toekomst voorspellen.

Benieuwd wat een Digital Twin voor jou kan betekenen? Of voor de stad Breda? Wie weet heb je daar zelf ideeën over? Meld je hier aan en laat je op donderdag 24 november op een unieke locatie inspireren door praktijkvoorbeelden van Gemeente Breda, BUas, Logistics Community Brabant en De Graaf Logistics.
