 Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)

In the real world, the ratio between full brightness of the sun and complete darkness is in thenrange of 2.000.000.000:1. But today projection display technology is limited to contrast ratios innthe order of 10.000:1. This hinders a convincing simulation and presentation of lighting effectsnin professional markets such as car styling, architecture and industrial design.nWhat is missing today are interactive visualisation systems that fully support high dynamic rangenmaterial and light information from the acquisition stage through the processing stage to thendisplay stage.nThe aim of MAXIMUS is to develop the first system to fully support high dynamic range information throughout the pipeline. Starting with high dynamic range material and light acquisition, providing a high dynamic range real-time light simulation and rendering pipeline and finally displaying maximum fidelity image quality with color gamut enhanced stereoscopic high dynamic range projection technology to bring the total dynamic range to over 5.000.000:1 – a real breakthrough in display technology. Natural gadget-free multi-modal interaction techniques will allow multiple users to easily interact with virtual objects, virtual light sources and materials to compose and configure scenes and evaluate lighting effect rendered in real-time. The system will be evaluated in the professional markets of car styling, architecture and industrial design.nThe MAXIMUS high fidelity and high dynamic range visualisation system will allow professionalsnand non-experts (due to its ease-of-use) to evaluate and experience virtual lighting effectsnconvincingly for the first time, thus overcoming many of the acceptance problems ofnvisualisation systems today.
