Beaming: an asymmetric telepresence system

IEEE Comput Graph Appl. 2012 Nov-Dec;32(6):10-7. doi: 10.1109/MCG.2012.110.

Abstract

The Beaming project recreates, virtually, a real environment; using immersive VR, remote participants can visit the virtual model and interact with the people in the real environment. The real environment doesn't need extensive equipment and can be a space such as an office or meeting room, domestic environment, or social space.
