Heads On! is Prague College's new event series specially focused on the IT and computing industries. Expert speakers are invited to address the most current trends in computing, gaming, image manipulation or IT security and are asked to cover areas highly relevant for PC students. Each event provides a unique opportunity for students to meet industry experts in various, mostly technological fields, and to participate actively in discussion. Speakers are also invited to mention possible careers or internship possibilities in their companies and to answer job-related questions.
Our first visiting lecturer in the new series is Jan Buri谩nek, an ICT consultant and project specialist who specializes in image processing. He will talk about hyper-resolution applications in various industries, especially in the field of real-time 3D visualizations for interactive environments and immersive spaces. The presentation will also cover technical aspects of hyper-resolution visualization today (4K, 8K, 鈥�) 鈥� in terms both of hardware and software. Successful local installations of hyper-resolution displays and domes will be presented and discussed; and we will identify opportunities for student work and industry cooperation in this very new field of visualization and the DCC industry.
