ST Engineering Antycip developed a digital collaboration experience for the University of Liverpool, UK, equipped with Digital Projection 3D projection equipment.
The Digital Innovation Facility (DIF) is comprised of multiple research laboratories, immersive visualisation facilities as well as work/break-out spaces for academics and collaborative partners.
Motion-capture specialist Target3D was commissioned to build two of the DIF’s labs, with ST Engineering Antycip supplying and configured the set-up for the mixed-reality laboratory.
The laboratory houses the UK’s first active stereo projection system, capable of rendering multiple unique tracked viewpoints.
Antycip supplied a Digital Projection INSIGHT Satellite MLS 4K HFR 360 projector to achieve a result that would allow lab users to view content from three, distinctive perspectives, on a floor-to-ceiling immersive 3D display.
The company also supplied haptic gloves, VR headsets and a purpose-built spatial sound stage, which includes two rack-based 10,000 lumen Satellite MLS modules, three PC-based image generators with NVIDIA Quadro RTX 6000 GPUs, 30 pairs of Volfoni 3D glasses and a bespoke 5mx2.63m rear-projection screen
John Mould, commercial development manager, ST Engineering Antycip, commented: “The ability for three individuals to be immersed within the same 3D content, and to navigate freely perceiving the visual corrected to their own eyes, means each user is able to point to the same exact location in space and no longer has to share and follow a primary single user.”
