Summer School on Virtual Humans

 

CLIPE’s 1st training workshop - Summer School on Virtual Humans - is scheduled to take place in Cyprus from the 13th until the 17th of September 2021!
The workshop’s aim is to provide an overview of the latest developments in technology and applications in the field of virtual characters. The workshop will be held in Adams Beach Hotel in Ayia Napa but it will be a hybrid event, giving the opportunity to participants to join the workshop online.
The first four days of the workshop will be open to researchers that do not participate in the CLIPE project, but still find the workshop of interest to them. You can find the program here (https://www.clipe-itn.eu/news/training-workshop-1%3A-summer-school-on-virtual-humans)
We can allow a limited number of remote participants, researchers specialising in the field of virtual humans. If you are interested to join the workshop online, please send us your name, affiliation and webpage at info@clipe-itn.eu. Registration to the workshop is free.
