Prolight at Hot3D

The PROJECT was presented at the IEEE Int. Conference and Expo and the co-located Workshop on Hot topics in 3D (Hot3D) held in Seattle, USA, July 2016. Specifically, Atanas Gotchev (TUT) and Tibor Balogh (HOL) presented position papers at the workshop and participated in a panel devoted to VR vs LF, moderated by Atanas Gotchev. The presentations and the panel were well attended by leading researchers from around the world, which marked a strong dissemination and outreach of the project results.

The workshop program is available here.

3rd Prolight Workshop

Third Prolight workshop on Modern Signal Processing Methods for Ultra-realistic Light-Field Displays

The Third Prolight workshop on Modern Signal Processing Methods for Ultra-realistic Light-Field Displays will be held in Lisbon, Portugal on July 8th 2015 as part of 3DTV-CON-2015.

The workshop’s goal is to bring together people conducting research in the area of light-field content preparation, processing and ultra-realistic visualization for fruitful face-to-face discussions on various topics related with their research interests. At first place, novel results from the Prolight-IAPP project will be presented to the wider audience of 3DTV Conference through a series of presentations. The workshop is opened also for high-quality paper submissions from people outside the project with the aim to intensify the interaction and increase the exchange of knowledge between people directly involved in the project and other interested parties. Papers should be submitted following the requirements of 3DTV-CON 2015. The submission deadline is set to 25 of May, 2015 and the notifications of acceptance will be issued on 1 of June 2015.

MTR meeting

Prolight-IAPP midterm review (MTR) meeting was held on 16-17 October 2013 in Budapest.

During the meeting all recruited and seconded researchers gave individual presentations, every work package leader presented the work done in the corresponding work packages and the meeting ended with a demo session at Holografika premises illustrating in practice the contributions achieved during the first 22 months of the Prolight-IAPP project.

Prolight @ ICIP 2014

icip_2014a

The PROLIGHT project has been represented at the IEEE International Conference on Image Processing in Paris, France during Oct 27-30th, 2014. The coordinator, ER3 and ER8 have attended the event, hosted a joint booth with 3D-ConTourNet at the exhibition area, and presented two papers in two Special Sessions during the conference. The booth featured a small-scale prototype light-field display, which attracted significant attention among conference participants. The booth also served as a meeting point for researchers involved in the areas of light-field and video compression, hosting many interesting discussions.

3DTV-Con 2014

The 3DTV Conference 2014 was held on July 2-4 2014, at the very center of Europe – in hotel Intercontinental in the beautiful city of Budapest.

The conference was organized by the Department of Signal Processing, Tampere University of Technology, Finland, Tampere International Center for Signal Processing (TICSP), and Holografika, Hungary (both partners in the Prolight-IAPP project) and technically sponsored by the IEEE Hungary Section, the IEEE Hungary Circuits, Systems & Computers Joint Chapter, and the IEEE Finland Signal Processing & Ciruits and Systems Joint Chapter.

This is the eight edition of the conference. As with the previous editions of the 3DTV conference, the papers presented at the conference will be available through the IEEE Xplore digital library.

Along with the conference a Prolight-IAPP steering committee meeting as well as a research meeting were held.

Interaction 2014

The COST training school on Rich 3D Content: Creation, Perception and Interaction will be held on June 29 – July 02, 2014 in Budapest, Hungary. The school will feature tutorial-like lectures on established topics by world-renowned speakers. It will be co-located with the 3DTV Conference 2014.

The school is organized by ICT COST Action 3D-ConTourNet, FP7 Marie Curie Action Prolight-IAPPDepartment of Signal Processing at Tampere University of Technology and Holografika KFT.
