Tutorial 2: Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality Services in 5G Era

Title:	Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality Services in 5G Era
Date/Time:	Monday October 19, 7:00 - 10:00 UTC (15:00 - 18:00 Beijing time)
Summary:	This tutorial is to provide attendees the basic concepts of the Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR). We will present an overview of the opportunities and challenges that AR/VR technologies are facing nowadays while 5G commercial usage rapidly grows from the academic and industry perspectives, and provide some AR and VR applications or demos. The attendees of this tutorial can expect to know the essential facts about AR/VR market trends and technology development as well as what contribution 5G and Cloud will make to AR/VR products. We invite the academic researchers and industrial experts from BUPT, China Mobile Research Institute, Pico and Nreal to share more details of 5G+AR/VR solution to commercial scenarios. Finally, we will discuss the significant obstacles and challenges 5G+AR/VR faces in current stage.
