CADET
Center for Advances in Digital Entertainment Technologies
How do human bodies become avatars in virtual worlds? How can artificial intelligence breathe natural behavior and empathy through the use of 3D characters? Which technologies will allow the entertainment industry to create even more vivid impressions and deep feelings, providing more realistic situations to bring together the real and digital world?
These issues are addressed in the research fields of CADET: “Mixed Reality,” “Full Body Interaction and Representation,” “Affective Computing” and “Technologies for Immersive Experiences.”
