Experience Cutting-Edge Technology! KDDI Booth Report
The showcase combined a 3D scan frame capturing subjects from multiple viewpoints with the KDDI Group's proprietary 3D Gaussian Splatting generation and rendering technology.
At the KDDI booth, this state-of-the-art workflow was on full display: capturing an individual, generating a 3D model, placing them inside a 3D virtual environment, and letting visitors take the model home to view on their smartphones.
Stepping into such a futuristic experience is undeniably thrilling.
The setup utilizes a 3D scan frame equipped with an array of cameras encircling the subject, capturing photos simultaneously from multiple angles.
Based on multi-view imagery captured in just moments, the person's likeness is generated into a 3D model.
The 3D avatar is then placed into a 3D background environment recreating a cinematic world.
This allows visitors to experience what it feels like to step right inside a movie or video game scene.
Visitors could even download the 3D model to their smartphones to take home!
You can view, rotate, and zoom in on your avatar freely from any angle.
That concludes our report on the KDDI booth, where visitors enjoyed brand-new interactive experiences!
