Faculty Learning Programme Train the Trainers-Part 3 on AR VR MR Development

Mr. M. Vasanthprakash, AP/EEE, conducted the 15th Faculty Learning Programme entitled AR VR MR Development.

In his presentation, he shared that Extended Reality (XR) is an umbrella term for visual technologies that enhance or explore our view of the world. This is often done by overlaying or immersing computer text and graphics into real-world and virtual environments, or even a combination of both. XR encompasses augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR). While all three realities share common overlapping features and requirements, each also has different purposes and underlying technologies.

So XR is set to play a fundamental role in the metaverse world. The next evolution of the Internet will converge real, digital, and virtual worlds into new realities, accessed via an Arm-powered 5G or 6G device such as a VR headset, AR smart glasses, or a spatial computer.

According to him, XR devices vary according to the type of AR, MR, and VR experience, the immersiveness, and the simplicity of human life that they enable. In addition, he gave a simple augmented reality (AR) live demo and played some animation videos for our faculty members to understand how XR technology can change our lives.

Movie Time − ‘HACHI: A Dog‘s Tale’

On November 24, 2022, the Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering organized a screening of the film HACHI: A Dog‘s Tale’, for I year B.E−EEE students. It is an immensely appealing drama about the extraordinary love and devotion of a dog for his beloved human companion. Hachi‘s story is a beautiful testimony to loyalty, patience, and friendship. But it can also be seen from a spiritual perspective as a parable about the spiritual practice of yearning as a way to stay connected with the Divine.

While sharing their reflections at the end of the session, Mr. K. Suren, I−EEE shared his thoughts that loyalty is not to forget people you love.

Ms. V.Rama I−EEE felt that it is a treat for all pet−lovers like herself.
