Speaker: Dr. Jon Barron (Google) Title: Radiance Fields and the Future of Generative Media Video: Click here to view Abstract: In this talk, I will:   1) review recent work from our team on reconstructing and generating 3D worlds using radiance fields,   2) discuss how I think about the different varieties of radiance field […]

Speaker: Dr. David Susillo (Meta) Title:  A wrist-based surface EMG neuromotor interface for human computer interaction that works across a population Abstract:  We describe the development of a noninvasive neuromotor interface that allows for computer input using surface electromyography (sEMG). We developed a highly-sensitive and robust hardware platform that is easily donned/doffed to sense sEMG […]

Speaker: Dr. Douglas Lanman (Meta) Title: Perceptually Driven Development of AR/VR Displays Video: Click here to view Abstract:  How can a display appear indistinguishable from reality? We describe how to pass this “visual Turing test” using AR/VR headsets, emphasizing the perceptually-driven design of optics, display components, rendering algorithms, and sensing elements. Meta’s Display Systems Research […]

Speaker: Dr. Bernard Kress (Google) Title: Display architectures for all-day-use smart eyewear Video: Click here to view Abstract: "What comes first? hardware or use case? While a decade ago (Google Glass era) we might have leaned towards "hardware first" and then hoping that developers would come up with killer apps, today it is clear that for a strong consumer adoption […]
