X-Reality-Lab

The X-Reality-Lab has a hexagonal floor plan with a floor area of 165m² and a room height of 8 metres. Five of the six walls and the floor are fully equipped with state-of-the-art 3D projectors to create impressive visual effects. Behind the projection surface is a sophisticated system of loudspeakers and subwoofers, which creates an immersive audio-visual experience by combining real-time 3D images and 3D surround sound. The room is equipped with combinable optical sensors and tracking systems to follow and identify people, objects and robots, creating a highly interactive environment. 

Significant parts of the X-Reality Lab's equipment are funded by the FFG and co-financed by the European Union in the EFRE programme. Further information on the IBW/EFRE- & JTF programme can be found at www.efre.gv.at 

MozXR is an innovative platform that supports artists, designers and creative teams in the development of immersive and interactive XR applications. The open-source framework combines established tools such as Unreal Engine, Unity and TouchDesigner in a common technical environment, providing the basis for sophisticated audiovisual projects - from interactive performances and multiplayer experiences to large-scale, walk-through installations.

Designed for use in specialised spaces such as the X-Reality-Lab at the Mozarteum University, the Deep Space at the Ars Electronica Center and comparable XR systems with highly developed technical equipment, MozXR offers a stable and flexible basis for projects in art, science, education and entertainment - in both non-commercial and professional contexts.

MozXR is currently under development and is available free of charge as an open source tool. Extensive training materials - including video tutorials, detailed documentation and practical application examples - make it easy to get started.
