CVG-HOLO – WAYFINDING HOLOGRAM PROJECT

XR-Lab is working with Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG), in collaboration with UC Center for Simulations & Virtual Environments Research, to

  1. Develop and demonstrate a wayfinding hologram.
  2. Evaluate the hologram signage’s performance to augment passengers’ wayfinding experience.
  3. Develop concepts of Concourse-B store renovation, integrating emerging digital technologies related to Extended Reality
  4. Develop a digital twin model of the CVG Concourse-B store area.

The project will apply various methods, including eye-tracking, motion capture, motion tracking, and computer vision.
