GAMES Webinar 2021 – 200期(VR专题) | Qi Sun (New York University)

【GAMES Webinar 2021-200期】(VR专题,Talk+Panel形式)

报告嘉宾:Qi Sun (New York University)

报告时间:2021年9月16号星期四上午10:00-11:30(北京时间)

报告题目:Learning, Leveraging, and Optimizing Human Experience in Metaverse

报告摘要:

The world is becoming unprecedentedly connected thanks to emerging media and cloud-based technologies. The holy grail of metaverse requires recreating a remotely shared world as a digital twin of the physical planet. In this world, the human is probably the most complex mechanical, physical, and biological system. Unlike computers, it is remarkably challenging to model and engineer how humans react in a virtual environment. By leveraging computational advancements such as machine learning and biometric sensors, this talk will share some recent research on altering and optimizing the human experience toward creating the ultimate metaverse.
