Project Overview

Would you like to take part in a Pilot Volumetric Capture Study to help in the research and development of digital human representation?

We are recruiting 10 people to participate in a dataset creation project using our volumetric capture system. This initiative will contribute to ongoing research and development in digital human representation. The research is part of a MyWorld project.

Project Details

· Participants will undergo full-body and facial capture using our volumetric capture system.

· The capture process will involve simple movements and static poses to ensure a diverse dataset.

· Sessions will be conducted under controlled conditions to maintain consistency and quality.

Requirements

· Open to people of all backgrounds—no prior experience needed.

· Must be comfortable with being captured and following simple movement instructions.

How to Apply
