FAME: Film Quality Augmented and Mixed Reality Experiences

Abstract FAME is an eighteen-month applied industrial research project to develop, demonstrate and evaluate technologies and workflow for creating real-time interactive Augmented and Mixed Reality experiences on consumer devices. The goal is to enable the experience of feature-film characters and properties interacting in the user’s own environment, in real time. The project will advance the state of the art, building on other ongoing UK and EU research by the partners, in lighting and environment capture and modelling using consumer-level devices, highly automated procedural asset preparation, and real-time rendering of real-world environments and movie assets to consumer devices. The results will enable the creation of a new kind of photo-real experience and advance the creation of real-time assets for transmedia production. The partnership brings together the UK’s leading VFX software developer, The Foundry, and the UK offshoot of the world's leading creator of digital VFX, ILM. The Foundry will commercialise results as extensions to its software tools.
