The annual meeting is a roadshow for new research results of the national broadcaster

On June the 28th, a roadshow about technological innovation in public television service in Rome presented the stereoscopic solution developed by Regione Piemonte, CSP and Centro Ricerche Rai (the research center of the public national tv broadcaster) in the context of the regional “ATLAS project”.
The ATLAS Project developed a 3D avatar for authomatic translation in deaf sign language. In particular, CSP has developed a system of stereoscopic reproduction to visualize the ATLAS avatar, who acts as sign language interpreter for deaf people.
The development of digital innovative services in the tv broadcaster sector is one of the aims of the Piemonte DELAN Pilot, aimed at supporting local communication SMEs: the presentation of this approach in one of the most important national events about innovation in the TV broadcasting sector is a first step towards the digital innovation of tv broadcast sector.
