Abstract: Recent demonstrations of 3D telepresence provide a glimpse into the future where 2D video communication is replaced with photo-realistic virtual avatars rendered on 3D displays by using dedicated hardware. Our platform lets visitors experience real-time end-to-end 3D teleconferencing using commodity hardware. This demo integrates current state-of-the-art face reconstruction and rendering algorithms into an end-to-end system to illustrate the utility and capabilities of commodity telepresence on a range of 3D displays.
