As I have said (previous post) The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) have given Professor David Gauntlett and Dr Pete Goodwin (University of Westminster, School of Media, Arts and Design) and myself (Faculty of Communication Media, Ravensbourne College of Design and Communication) a grant of £47,670 to build a knowledge exchange network between producers of public service media and academics. The project is titled: Building Collaboration and Engagement for Media Professionals and Academic Researchers.
The project will be mentored by Rowena Goldman and Adrian Woolard from BBC Future Media and Technology, and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. Adrian is an interesting guy who has done much research on augmented reality. See this presentation on the BBC’s thoughts about mixing the real and virtual to create new kinds of experiences. Augmented Reality is likely to grow in usage over the next few years. James Uren, one of the academics at Ravensbourne is putting in for a grant from the HEA (Higher Education Academy) to do an experiment in the use of AR with smartphones. This could be really interesting.
