METAVERSE TECHNOLOGIES AND APPLICATIONS
Application Status
- Successfully applied for the National Development Council subsidy program "5G Metaverse Technology promotes innovative development of urban marketing services " in 2023 and the first event is officially held on the Lantern Festival on February 24, 2024 – Yanshui Fengpao Fireworks Live Broadcast. At the same time, in conjunction with Tainan’s 400th anniversary event, a 3D field digital collection and guide will be presented in the Metaverse, including Anping Castle, Anping Old Street, Tainan Chihkan Tower and other historic sites.
- By adopting WebAR technology, we let users experience AR directly. This means users do not need to install an APP in advance like in the past. We provide this service in exhibition venues, including the 2021 Kaohsiung Exhibition Center "Yawan Innovation X New Innovation Great Southern" exhibition activities, 2022 Taipei Smart City Exhibition "AR Interactive Experience", Kaohsiung Exhibition Center Pop Music Center "NCC 5G Vertical Field Experience Event",2023 Ministry of Digital Affairs "Matsu case" and "Tainan Yanshan Salt Industry Exhibition", etc.
- The "TANGRAM x AR" service was jointly launched with Tangram, which combines the IoT platform to provide accessibility and analysis of sensor data. The intelligent AR terminal displays information about the predictive maintenance of the machine, monitoring of poor quality, etc. This service also uses AR to mentor staff about standard maintenance procedures. As a result, not only the quality and efficiency of equipment maintenance are improved, but the dangers caused by human operation errors are reduced.
- Apply VR technology to education and training awareness, and complete cloud classroom platform and live broadcast system. The function of the cloud classroom platform includes two-way live broadcast, 360-degree live broadcast, multi-view live broadcast, first-view live broadcast, and live broadcast multi-tenant structure. These services are now applied to Chunghwa Telecom cloud classroom, and a 5G project of a university of science and technology.
- Using VR video streaming technology to broadcast the 2021 Tokyo Olympic Games in the 5G VR Pavilion of Chunghwa Telecom Hami Video on the mobile web version VR player that supports binocular play mode.
- Integrate XR, Avatar, virtual scenes, digital modeling, large bandwidth, low latency, and other elements to create new types of applications in the Metaverse. These applications include virtual KTV, virtual showroom, virtual live stream,virtual press conference, etc. The technologies we integrate would be essential elements when constructing the virtual world.
- A total of 19 patents have been applied for and certified by 2023.
