Bootstrapping the educational Metaverse with AI
Tuesday 14/05 10:30-12:00h
Plenary Hall
Needs Analysis
Creating sensible educational experiences for the Metaverse is hard, and content creators often struggle with finding the right starting point, deploying helpful methodology, or utilizing the general tool set available to quickly implement educational XR experiences.
Learning Objectives
The participants of the workshop will:
- Try out latest smart glasses delivery devices (Apple Vision Pro, Microsoft Hololens)
- Understand key enabling technology (text-to-3D, parametric geometry, volumetric video, motion capture, AI-assisted 3D scanning, holographic AI)
- Critically assess pros and cons of these technologies and the applications they enable
- Select the right mix of technologies for intended use cases
- Create XR learning content with tangible tools
Pre-activities
The participants should install the following applications on their mobile devices: MirageXR, PolyCAM, and Luma AI:
- MirageXR for Android: Download.
- MirageXR for iOS: Download.
- Polycam for iOS: Download.
- Luma AI for iOS: Download.
Session Description
The workshop will proceed with this agenda:
- A brief introduction generative AI for the creation of educational Metaverse experiences.
- A cued tutorial of the tools, showing how to use PolyCAM, Luma.AI, Sloyd, Mixamo, Move.AI, 3dfy).
- Then participants will spend time on creating artefacts, also outlining (in discussion at least, but maybe also with quick demo using MirageXR as assembly tool) the possibilities for educational use.
