FishEyA – Live Broadcasting Around 360 Degrees

FishEyA – Live Broadcasting Around 360 Degrees

Presentation by SciFabLab at Virtual Reality Software Technologies (VRST) 2014:  We aim to build up a low-cost prototype system for cognitive studies around a live 360 degrees vision. Have, e.g., an original broadcasting channel that could transmit and cover in real time a panoramic vision at a distance and with minimal computation. Have developed an optimized software  to run in mini-computers like Raspberry and Banana Pi, BeagleBone having a light GUI to easily configure the 360° visual field and activate the streaming signal.

Live streaming at 360 degrees and applications – phase I

This project aims to build up a low-cost prototype system for cognitive studies around a 360 degrees panoramic vision in real time.  The final goal is to have an original broadcast TV channel that transmits and covers live a full 360 degree vision.  The first phase of the project is to recreate a pair of 360 degree glasses to understand better the technology and requirements.  The final 360 degree transmission will be to display in a modular array of different screens (circular or planar).
