Description:
DreamFlux presents MR360 Live, a new way to create immersive and interactive Mixed Reality applications. It blends 3D virtual objects into live streamed 360 videos in real-time, providing the illusion of interacting with objects in the video. From a standard 360° video, we automatically extract important lighting details, illuminate virtual objects, and realistically composite them into the video. Our MR360 toolkit runs in real-time and is integrated into game engines, enabling content creators to conveniently build interactive mixed reality applications. We demonstrate applications for augmented teleportation using 360° videos. This application allows VR users to travel to different 360° videos. The user can add and interact with digital objects in the video to create their own augmented/mixed reality world. Using a live streaming 360° camera, we will travel to and augment the Real-Time Live! stage in front of a live audience.
