    From Capture to Immersive Viewing of 3D HDR Point Clouds
    (The Eurographics Association, 2022) Loscos, Celine; Souchet, Philippe; Barrios, Théo; Valenzise, Giuseppe; Cozot, Rémi; Hahmann, Stefanie; Patow, Gustavo A.
    The collaborators of the ReVeRY project address the design of a specific grid of cameras, a cost-efficient system that acquires at once several viewpoints, possibly under several exposures and the converting of multiview, multiexposed, video stream into a high quality 3D HDR point cloud. In the last two decades, industries and researchers proposed significant advances in media content acquisition systems in three main directions: increase of resolution and image quality with the new ultra-high-definition (UHD) standard; stereo capture for 3D content; and high-dynamic range (HDR) imaging. Compression, representation, and interoperability of these new media are active research fields in order to reduce data size and be perceptually accurate. The originality of the project is to address both HDR and depth through the entire pipeline. Creativity is enhanced by several tools, which answer challenges at the different stages of the pipeline: camera setup, data processing, capture visualisation, virtual camera controller, compression, perceptually guided immersive visualisation. It is the experience acquired by the researchers of the project that is exposed in this tutorial.

    Safeguarding our Dance Cultural Heritage
    (The Eurographics Association, 2022) Aristidou, Andreas; Chalmers, Alan; Chrysanthou, Yiorgos; Loscos, Celine; Multon, Franck; Parkins, J. E.; Sarupuri, Bhuvan; Stavrakis, Efstathios; Hahmann, Stefanie; Patow, Gustavo A.
    Folk dancing is a key aspect of intangible cultural heritage that often reflects the socio-cultural and political influences prevailing in different periods and nations; each dance produces a meaning, a story with the help of music, costumes and dance moves. It has been transmitted from generation to generation, and to different countries, mainly due to movements of people carrying and disseminating their civilization. However, folk dancing, amongst other intangible heritage, is at high risk of disappearing due to wars, the moving of populations, economic crises, modernization, but most importantly, because these fragile creations have been modified over time through the process of collective recreation, and/or changes in the way of life. In this tutorial, we show how the European Project, SCHEDAR, exploited emerging technologies to digitize, analyze, and holistically document our intangible heritage creations, that is a critical necessity for the preservation and the continuity of our identity as Europeans.
