Research Vr Podcast - The Science & Design Of Virtual Reality

Alexander Porter joins us to talk about DepthKit, a Volumetric Video Capture tools and Scatter, the company he cofounded. Topics discussed: - Starting from building an open sourced volumetric video creation tool - Creating mobile Volcap tools for non engineers with small budgets - How do IR Depth Cams work? Key takeaways: - The need for Volumetric live action capture is on the rise (because of new display tech; ie VR, AR, holographic displays) - New Depth cameras are on the rise once again - Big need for software that lets filmmakers use these sensors to make film and art without having a CS degree
