TELE-IMMERSION
[attachment=22336]
WHAT IS TELE-IMMERSION ?
TELE-IMMERSION IS A NEW COMMUNICATION MEDIUM TRYING TO CREATE THE ILLUSION THAT USERS AT GEOGRAPHICALLY DISPERSED PLACES SHARE THE SAME PHYSICAL SPACE POSSIBLY AUGMENTED BY VIRTUAL COMPONENTS.
TELE-IMMERSION & VR
TELE-IMMERSION SEEMS LIKE ANOTHER KIND OF VIRTUAL REALITY
VIRTUAL REALITY ALLOWS PEOPLE TO MOVE AROUND IN A PREPROGRAMMED REPRESENTATION OF 3D ENVIRONMENT
BUT
TELE-IMMERSION IS MORE LIKE PHOTOGRAPHY MEASURING THE REAL WORLD AND CONVEYING THE RESULTS TO THE SENSORY SYSTEM
STONES TO BE TURNED UP
TODAY'S INTERNET CANNOT SHIP DATA FAST ENOUGH.TODAY'S 56 KBPS CONNECTIONS CANNOT DO THAT. MINIMUM 60 MBPS REQUIRED.HIGH QUALITY REQUIRES:1.2 GBPS
IN ADDITION TO HIGH SPEED NETWORKS TELE-IMMERSION REQUIRES SUPERCOMPUTERS TO PERFORM THE TRILLIONS OF CALCULATIONS NEEDED TO PORTRAY ENVIRONMENTS IN 3D
INTERNET2 ADDED VALUE
THE INCREASED BANDWIDTH PROVIDED BY INTERNET2 WILL ALLOW MORE DATA ABOUT A REMOTE ENVIRONMENT TO BE TRANSMITTED,THUS PROVIDING FOR A GREATER SENSE OF IMMERSION
TELE-IMMERSION IS THE ONLY APPLICATION WHICH CAN DEPLOY THE FULL BANDWIDTH OF INTERNET2
GREATEST TECHNICAL CHALLENGE FOR INTERNET2
APPLICATIONS
E-BOOKS FOR SURGICAL TRAINING
MULTI-PERSON TELE-IMMERSION
CONCLUSION
IT IS THE NEXT MAJOR DEVELOPMENT IN THE FIELD OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AS NOW YOU CAN VISIT AN INDIVIDUAL AT A LONG DISTANCE EVEN WITHOUT STEPPING A FOOT OUTSIDE
THIS TECHNOLOGY WILL ENABLE RESEARCHERS TO COLLABORATE IN FIELDS SUCH AS ARCHITECTURE,MEDICINE,ASTROPHYSICS & AERO PLANE DESIGN
EVEN THE FAST FOOD CHAIN MCDONALDS HAS ENVISIONED FITTING TELE-IMMERSION BOOTHS IN ITS RESTAURANTS SO PEOPLE AWAY FROM HOME COULD HAVE DINNER WITH THEIR FAMILY
HENCE THIS TECHNOLOGY IS NOT THAT FAR OFF
