Creating the movement for HOME X is one of the most exciting parts of the project. Si is in a studio in London and Suen in Hong Kong both studios are equipped with cameras. When they put on their VR headsets the camera footage of each is ‘holoported’ live into the HOME X digital world. They can see, interact and move with each other despite being 6000 miles apart on different continents.

It’s a duet in cyberspace!

The technology for HOME X is developed by our Creative Technologist @idgallagher Ian Gallagher.

HOME X uses the gaming engine Unity to create a three-dimensional, virtual world.

In separate studios in Hong Kong and the UK depth-sensing cameras capture 3D video of the performers and “holoport” – that is, insert – that video into the HOME X world in real time.

The performers see and immerse themselves in the digital environment using virtual reality headsets, so although they are not in the same place physically, they see themselves and each other together inside the 3D game world.

The audience also enter the same world as avatars.

Using music software Jamulus and WebRTC technology, HOME X connects the London and Hong Kong performers in real time, which means the artists can act, dance and interact with both their digital selves and the audience avatars.

The capability to stream in realtime to a large global audience was kindly provided by Millicast.
