Augsburg City Run
In this installation the user navigates through a 3D model of the city of Augsburg. In contrast to most other virtual reality installations, the virtual Augsburg is completely crowded: hundred of virtual pedestrians and joggers are on their way, and the player’s task is to catch as many passers-by as possible while avoiding collisions with others.
The interactive installation and the techniques for character real-time animation have been
developed by the laboratory for Multimedia Concepts and Applications at Augsburg
University. The far out special optical tracking system is a development of the company inoptech.
