Events

We organize and participate in several events throughout the year. Our main event each year is CIVIT Technology Day, which brings together renowned speakers and experts from the industry and academia sharing insights on immersive tech trends. In our previous Tech Days, we have covered topics such as Motion DeconstructedVR Walkthrough and the Art and Tech of 360° Video. You can find all of the Tech Day presentations on our YouTube channel.

We also host visitors and have demos in different events frequently. Furthermore, CIVIT can be a partner in organizing events and conferences. We have co-organized conferences such as IEEE MMSP 2021 and IEEE MMSP 2020 (International Workshop on Multimedia Signal Processing), ELFI 2019 (European Light Field Imaging Workshop) and 3DTV Conference 2018
