One day event dedicated to demonstrating 5G enabled experiences across several Bristol venues. I attended several talks at the Bristol VR Lab including ‘Smart Tourism’ & ‘Engaging the Audiences of the Future’. DigiCatapult presented the idea that 5G would be a digital enabler for technology programmes such as AI, Machine Learning, IoT & Immersive Technology (VR, AR, MR) and Landmrk showcased a 360 video guided tour of Bristol. It was then time to get hands on and at M-Shed, Smartify previewed a digital platform that targeted user own devices to help museum visitors experience art in more engaging way from traditional audio guides. At We the Curious Mativision presented a comparison between current and 5G networks by streaming an immersive VR experience of the Bristol Harbour Festival and Bristol Pride events and Mo-sys demonstrated interactive AR using its star-tracking system to create a more engaging landing gear experience.
