REPLICATE

REPLICATE – cReative-asset harvEsting PipeLine to Inspire Collective-AuThoring and Experimentation

REPLICATE project page

Co-funded by the European Commission's Horizon2020 Programme

Duration: January 2016 – December 2018

REPLICATE‘s main goal is to stimulate and support collaborative creativity for everyone anywhere and anytime (ubiquitous co-creativity). To achieve this goal, the project will address different aspects that currently complicate the process of content creation and collaborative co-creation.

REPLICATE aims to build upon leading research into the use of Smartphones and their sensors to deliver robust image-based 3D reconstruction of objects and their surroundings via highly visual, tactile and haptic user interfaces. In order to deliver real-time, interactive tools for high-quality 3D asset production, the project will balance device-based vs. cloud-based computational loading, rather than simply replacing regular computers by mobile devices. In this way, REPLICATE will facilitate everyone to take part in the creative process, anywhere and anytime, through a seamless user experience, ranging from the capturing of the real-world, modifying and adjusting objects for flexible usage, and then finally repurposing them via co-creative, MR workspaces to form novel creative media or through physical expression via rapid prototyping.
