PERSEUS Project receives funding

The PERSEUS (Platform for Enhanced Virtual Reality in Sport Exercise Understanding and Simulation) research project, which deals with the development of VR-based goalkeeping training, successfully received the financial support from the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy – BMWi). AKII Microlab will design and develop AI algorithms for VR avatar-based reconstruction of the player’s movement, able to track and simulate the whole-body skeletal movement of goalkeepers using embedded glove sensors. The funding is part of the Central Innovation Program for SMEs (ZIM) and thus supports our research activities in the field of VR and AI.
