The research group Gamecast develops software solutions in the field of interactive media, virtual movie production and previsualization. Gamecast is linking research, education and economics in the field of digital media and combining competences from different fields of knowledge. Due to its innovative strength and the development of new techniques, interdisciplinary research at the University of Applied Sciences Mittweida
is essential for Gamecast. The group researches and develops key technologies which will help
• to make the production of animated movies easier and faster and incorporate mimic and movement tracking.
• to connect video games with animated movies
• to automatically adjust games to the emotions and wants of each individual gamer.
In December 2010 the first working prototype was completed. Currently the research group is validating this prototype through the production of pilot projects.
