WHAT IS TELE-IMMERSION ??? TELE-IMMERSION IS A NEW COMMUNICATION MEDIUM TRYING TO CREATE THE ILLUSION THAT USERS AT GEOGRAPHICALLY DISPERSED PLACES SHARE THE SAME PHYSICAL SPACE POSSIBLY AUGMENTED BY VIRTUAL COMPONENTS.
TELE-IMMERSION IS THE ULTIMATE SYNTHESIS OF COMPUTER VISION, NETWORKING, AND GRAPHICS. IT REQUIRES THE REAL-TIME SCANNING OF A SCENE, ITS TRANSMISSION WITH MINIMAL LATENCY, AND ITS IMMERSIVE RENDERING AT A REMOTE SITE.
TELE-IMMERSION & VR TELE-IMMERSION SEEMS LIKE ANOTHER KIND OF VIRTUAL REALITY VIRTUAL REALITY ALLOWS PEOPLE TO MOVE AROUND IN A PREPROGRAMMED REPRESENTATION OF 3D ENVIRONMENT BUT TELE-IMMERSION IS MORE LIKE PHOTOGRAPHY MEASURING THE REAL WORLD AND CONVEYING THE RESULTS TO THE SENSORY SYSTEM
REAL TIME 3D ENVIRONMENT SCANNING WIN NT PC TWO MONOCHROME + ONE COLOUR CAMERA IMAGE PROCESSING BOARDS 3D TRIANGLE MESH
OFF-LINE “GOLD STANDARD” ENVIRONMENT SCANNING COMPUTER CONTROLLED LASER-SCANNING SYSTEM HIGH QUALITY COLOUR CAMERA 3D POINT MODEL
REAL-TIME 2D WFOV TELECONFERENCING WIDE-FIELD-OF-VIEW (WFOV) 2D CAMERA SYSTEMS INCREDIBLE BANDWIDTH
STONES TO BE TURNED UP TODAY'S INTERNET CANNOT SHIP DATA FAST ENOUGH.TODAY'S 56 KBPS CONNECTIONS CANNOT DO THAT. MINIMUM 60 MBPS REQUIRED.HIGH QUALITY REQUIRES:1.2 GBPS IN ADDITION TO HIGH SPEED NETWORKS TELE-IMMERSION REQUIRES SUPERCOMPUTERS TO PERFORM THE TRILLIONS OF CALCULATIONS NEEDED TO PORTRAY ENVIRONMENTS IN 3D
INTERNET2 ADDED VALUE THE INCREASED BANDWIDTH PROVIDED BY INTERNET2 WILL ALLOW MORE DATA ABOUT A REMOTE ENVIRONMENT TO BE TRANSMITTED,THUS PROVIDING FOR A GREATER SENSE OF IMMERSION TELE-IMMERSION IS THE ONLY APPLICATION WHICH CAN DEPLOY THE FULL BANDWIDTH OF INTERNET2 GREATEST TECHNICAL CHALLENGE FOR INTERNET2
APPLICATIONS • E-BOOKS FOR SURGICAL TRAINING • MULTI-PERSON TELE-IMMERSION
CONCLUSION IT IS THE NEXT MAJOR DEVELOPMENT IN THE FIELD OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AS NOW YOU CAN VISIT AN INDIVIDUAL AT A LONG DISTANCE EVEN WITHOUT STEPPING A FOOT OUTSIDE THIS TECHNOLOGY WILL ENABLE RESEARCHERS TO COLLABORATE IN FIELDS SUCH ASARCHITECTURE,MEDICINE,ASTROPHYSICS & AERO PLANE DESIGN EVEN THE FAST FOOD CHAIN MCDONALDS HAS ENVISIONED FITTING TELE-IMMERSION BOOTHS IN ITS RESTAURANTS SO PEOPLE AWAY FROM HOME COULD HAVE DINNER WITH THEIR FAMILY HENCE THIS TECHNOLOGY IS NOT THAT FAR OFF
