The I3TC

The Ilmenau Interactive Immersive Technologies Center (I3TC) is a TU Ilmenau infrastructure unit for the holistic research of technologies and applications of immersive media as well as their use and evaluation. In particular, such approaches and systems are considered that are oriented as far as possible to reality. This includes virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) as well as spatial audio and immersive video formats (high dynamic range - HDR, 8K or higher resolution, etc.). A focus is on distributed applications, especially telepresence solutions.
