AI and XR Ecosystem for Digital Performing Arts Production and Distribution

digitalTestedTRL 5

Imagine being able to experience a Broadway play or a professional dance performance from your living room as if you were there. This project uses smart cameras and virtual reality to capture the tiny details of a performer's movement and emotion. It's like creating a high-tech digital archive that lets anyone, anywhere, feel the energy of a live show.

Who can put this to work

Entertainment & Streaming
enterprise
Target: Digital Content Platform

If you are a streaming service dealing with low engagement for recorded arts — this project developed AI-powered audio and motion indexing that makes searching for specific performance moments easier for users. This increases the visibility of content for a global audience.

Education & Training
mid-size
Target: Arts Academy

If you are a school dealing with the loss of historical performance data — this project developed 3D capture and Laban Movement Analysis tools that preserve nuanced human movement. This allows students to study past performances with high precision.

Tourism & Culture
SME
Target: Virtual Museum Operator

If you are a cultural venue dealing with accessibility barriers for elderly or disabled visitors — this project developed XR streaming specifications that bring the theater experience to those who cannot travel. This expands your reachable customer base.
