AR/VR technologies – a part of the  European Metaverse Research Network initiative

On Thursday, 25 May, a research seminar was held at the Lecturing Centre of the Poznan University of Technology, where Dr Slawomir K. Tadeja from the University of Cambridge presented a talk entitled 'VR/AR for Digital Twinning: A Short Introduction with Case Studies'.

The seminar was organised by the Department of Robotics at the Institute of Robotics and Machine Intelligence as part of the European Metaverse Research Network, an initiative that brings together seven European research centres that have received Meta grants to research applications of metaverse concepts and technologies. At Poznan University of Technology, the Meta-supported project is being implemented by the newly established Interdisciplinary Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Security.

Slawomir K. Tadeja is a postdoctoral research associate in the Cyber-Human Lab at the University of Cambridge. Previously he had undertaken his PhD studies in Cambridge, working on immersive visual analytics in Virtual Reality (VR) applied in various branches of engineering. S. K. Tadeja works across domains to understand, design, and prototype solutions where cyber-physical systems may bring the most benefits, including manufacturing, digital twinning, robotics and automata, rehabilitation and medicine.
