Metaverse Enablers: moving towards virtual worlds

with i2CAT Foundation

October 26, 2023 – 14:45 – 16:15

The Metaverse and its expected beneficial impacts on almost all aspects of society are a hot topic of discussion in the research and industrial ecosystems since a while. The Metaverse concept itself entails a very broad set of enabling technologies and this session elaborates on a few of them, specifically virtual worlds and eXtended Reality (XR) services. This session is split in two tracks:

  • Track 1 focuses on what the three research projects funded by the EC under the SNS program Phase 1/Stream C “SNS experimental infrastructure” are working on XR and other enabling technologies for the virtual worlds.
  • Track 2 focuses on the challenges and opportunities of enabling technologies for the virtual worlds from the point of view of two SMEs and two European associations, AIOTI and BDVA.
