Posts with Research, projects and productions by Prof. Alaric Hamacher and the 3D Film Lab at Kwangwoon University in the field of immersive media and spatial imaging.
The work explores how emerging technologies transform the creation and experience of moving images, connecting stereoscopic 3D, virtual and augmented reality, spatial video, volumetric capture, light-field imaging, digital holography and immersive displays.
Projects combine cinematography and media production with research into new capture, visualization and display technologies, from VR and 360° production to Apple Vision Pro, glasses-free 3D displays, Gaussian Splatting and spatial computing.
This section collects articles, experiments, productions and research exploring the transition from conventional screen-based media toward interactive and spatial forms of visual communication.3D models and Immersive and VR Content
