Title:

"Videos in Space: Evaluating a Collaborative Virtual Environment approach to video conferencing."

Location:

Archway 2 - 1:00 pm, Friday 28 September

Abstract:

"Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVE) are shared artificial spaces�where distant participants can meet virtually and work with others�connected through networked computers. In this seminar, the results of�two recent user studies are presented that compare regular video�conferencing tools with prototypes which integrate the videos of remote�people into the spatial context of a CVE. Opportunities involved as well�as the design challenges posed by this novel type of telecommunication�are discussed."
