When traveling in the real world becomes difficult devices like these can help with ya goggles we can explore extraordinary places and even travel in time what makes possible i would topic today or ship. Up until now the odds were rather expensive barky and required an additional console your devices function independently now and are available for about 200. 00 euros the best results are still achieve but permanently installed high end systems though i took a look at different installations for tourists in my hometown. Berlin 1960 through one. Runs through the heart of the city separating east and west and east german residents are strictly forbidden from crossing the border at the risk of being. Due to virtual history allows me yours to experience life in the divided city firsthand and to see how young west berliners helped those in the east. In this picture is those measures from closer hes my grandfather and in this picture you see them building a tunnel under the bed and ball. B. R. Goggles bring on tons family legacy to life they let in descend into a virtual shaft like the one his grandfather and other Estate Agents had built from east to west. 12 meters underground the 145 meter long tunnel under the berlin wall took 6 months to complete its super uncomfortable here. To be our director for sending this is a perfect example for how Virtual Reality can bring history to life. Things have progressed in a way that we now are starting to see historical material processed in a whole new way suddenly old stands can be displayed in a 4 k. Or even 8 k. And we are we have the opportunity to expand these world. Making it possible to step into historic scenes weve otherwise only known from pictures were newspaper articles with can order of the author. Gripping tales from the past reconstructed up close and in full color. Writing like. Crossing the 1970 s. Border at checkpoint charlie is no simple task not even n. P. R. But this installation for berlin terrorists also sees room for in the style she glimpse into former east berlin streets. Travelling through time is just so much fun some Developers Want to go one step further and use we are to make history we live a book how would you like to take part in the march on washington in 1963 when civil rights activist Martin Luther king held his famous speech. Over 80 actors and various p. R. Specialists helped to recreate this historic moment in time. You literally marching with the people youre standing there youre looking at you know dr king give the speech youre looking at every gesture and then looking at him seeing his eyes through you something it becomes very personal while goosebumps unfortunately the home selection for a spectacular view our experiences is still quite limited many can only be tried out with high end equipment especially events on top of that the hardware set up for home viewing still comes with a lot of annoying glitches and for many these systems are still too expensive for most to read we are still just getting started. Kitchell heads a Virtual Reality studio in berlin he says the technology will have its big break soon enough thanks to some exciting innovations in brains it like it better goggles have improved significantly in the last 2 years last year we experienced a quantum leap forward when prices became affordable and quality rose to a range that justify the cost of not just want to carry shelf and his partner philip vending produce Virtual Reality content thats recently the organized if they are event alongside to be the biggest german film festival. To them theres no such thing as one stereotypical b. R. User. This medium has many different types of targets viewers theres the classic lean back audience that we know from television if they watch content and like being told stories but theyre not keen on interacting its really just about seeing a good story because. Then youve got the classic gamers who want to interact but who dont necessarily need photo realistic surroundings theyre looking for 3 d. Generated surroundings ideally live 3 d. Generated surroundings that they can manipulate and can. Its and then theres the target audience thats not really looking for entertainment theyre mostly from the industrial sector and use beyond theyre designing processes or to create previsualization they work in the Automotive Industry in architecture or in medicine. There for example they can practice new methods of surgery. Until i found a ford. For years theyve been saying the industry has a lot of potential but heres a reality check in 21000 users around the world spend 5700000000 euros on hardware and software sounds like a lot in gaming it was a spent over 150000000000 euros in the same time span by 2022 but beyond the street is expecting its turnover to rise to 15000000000 euros but 1st it needs to improve the whereas it offers still we are lets you travel to places that were impossible to visit before for example world famous construction site unique images from inside the cathedral in paris after it was devastated by a fire in 21000 new structures and a high led concentration in the air make accessing the interior extremely dangerous for humans which is why a 360 degree camera robot is taking over the images it captures can be were viewed with p. R. Goggles. She says we used this robot to get right to the center of the cathedral right under gaping hole we wouldnt have managed to without the robot but the camera got lucky when i stood in the ruins i wasnt able to stand under that hole but now i can thanks to b. R. Just a few weeks before the fire filmmakers close for you and victor argue no one had finished shooting a 3 d. Documentary on the world famous church. After the fire we realized we had captured the moment and not told us history that we could now give back to the public. By combining film material from before the fire with new images recording the damage the fire had caused the 2 filmmakers have now produced a 2nd documentary rebuilding the dam accompanies the reconstruction of the famous church. Is one of a kind depictions of the cathedral is damaged interior else is most of its source of these images are extraordinary they were filmed in Virtual Reality so in 360 degrees with a very High Definition and in 3 d. That creates a separate image for the left and right eye each makes you feel like youre really is there. Virtual reality goggles let you independently explore the cathedral in this 16 minute long film sensors enable you to navigate through the building freely using your own body movements but the experience is strictly limited to b. R. In the real world the top down is currently still closed to visitors giving users the feeling of being in the midst of it all thats the goal for Virtual Reality and the more senses come into use the more real the experience will seem. Weve had a look at the installation which offers a unique acoustic experience listening to music just the way it sounded when composer your hands about headed performed in the 18th century. The chapel its just mind a mystical place for both fans around the world burned down 1774. 00 this painting was all that was left of it. Now its been rebuilt in Virtual Reality. Blueprints for the architecture and sound composition were kept a space full to the original as possible. As demons hamills bird chapel is almost like atlantis kind of like a sunken place of longing for bach. For years i dreamt of recreating the hell most birds so others could experience it and that dream has finally come true for most of. Us it was performed on historic instruments in an echo free room at the technical university. That the sound could later be adjusted to fit the chappells accused the work and sounds just like it did in past times. We all can make dreams come true. Ive always wanted to be a crocodile for instance. Whats it like to be a came in gliding down the amazon river. For a tree frog hopping from limb to limb. In this Virtual Reality installation it just depends can take on the lives of 5 different animals. I think hes still my favorite animal is the vampire bat its so cuddly and i love the way its experience has been recreated you get to fly through the rain forest by night and with a bad night vision and its simply amazing for the. You know clue guy and her team at the Interactive MediaFoundation Company in berlin designed this me our installation being recreated 400 hectares of brazils 2 local Market National park in the amazon rain forest the whole project took over a year 7500 plants alone had to be individually drawn and programmed the installation is now touring museums around the world. And. We wanted to create an Emotional Experience that you can delve right into we wanted viewers to enjoy themselves and become interested in the animals in the way they experience the world and i must say its working or weve had lots of people asking us is it really true that the poison dart frog sees those crazy colors it down how did you find that out or where can we learn more. Before. Far. Passing our knowledge with Virtual Reality works especially well when the experience is as impressive as flying over the rain forest. What is on offer is getting more and more spectacular even if theres still room for improvement i think theres work to be done on graphics and resolution the greatest challenge for the industry will be to make the goggles lighter and more mobile this thing here for example its just a bit too bulky even for me i suppose of the industry say so this will be a thing of the past. In the near future we wont have these anymore and instead well have real glasses that look like the glasses we know now fashionable accessories but with lenses that either stay transparent and display Additional Information or ones that can darken your vision completely and show Something Else and i closed.
