CAMERA and CREATE lab will be part of a major £46 million regional project on digital media technologies. The South West is on track to become an international trailblazer in screen-based media thanks to £46 million funding, which will launch a creative media powerhouse called MyWorld and supercharge economic growth,...
Computer Scientists at Bath have found a solution to the challenges of creating realistic virtual reality sword fights. Sword fights are often the weak link in virtual reality (VR) fighting games, with digital avatars engaging in battle using imprecise, pre-recorded movements that barely reflect the player’s actions or intentions. Now...
A very warm welcome to Dr Pooya Soltani who will lead the technical aspects of motion capture activity in CAMERA’s new Innovation Studio, funded by the European Regional Development Fund. Pooya joins us from the Assistive Technologies Innovation Centre at the University of Wales Trinity Saint David where he worked...
