The Hybrid Environmental Projection Platform is currently being developed as a spatial augmented reality platform with integrated Information and Communication Technology (ICT) systems. The operation of the platform is based on interactive systems, robotics, and telepresence systems that allow the immersive projection of cultural themes to and from diverse multilingual communities. The project aims the creation of a transcultural network that will cooperatively develop telepresence objects, inspired by those communities’ cultural heritage in order to enhance its efficient dissemination.

HYBRID ENVIRONMENTAL PROJECTION PLATFORM (V.3)
[2018-2021]
The 3rd iteration of HEPP includes a redesigned Unity-based interactive platform and embodies an innovative approach to historical data collection and representation.

The whole installation is portable and unfolds to get assembled on location. The dimensions of the platform are such to fit normal rooms. Additionally, it can operate as an add-on infrastructure in larger rooms. It can be adjusted to fit inside classrooms and conference rooms as well as within halls and auditoriums.
