3D Tele-Collaboration Over Internet2

Abstract

Our long-term vision is to provide a better every-day working environment, with high-fidelity scene reconstruction for life-sized 3D telecollaboration. In particular, we want to provide the user with a true sense of presence with our remote collaborator and their real surroundings, and the ability to share and interact with 3D documents. The challenges related to this vision are enormous and involve many technical tradeoffs, particularly in scene reconstruction.
