One of the great challenges in_x000D_
virtual reality is providing high quality three-dimensional content of real-world events. In this collaboration,_x000D_
research on the creation of three-dimensional content creation will target a special patented camera_x000D_
configuration which promises to simplify and speed-up the content-creation process. This patented camera_x000D_
configuration of three or six cameras each providing a hemispherical view provides enough redundancy_x000D_
creating the opportunity to make significant improvements to real-time three-dimensional content creation. The_x000D_
goal of this project is to be able to capture real-world events which then can be visualized while navigating_x000D_
through the event. This is to enable a viewer to move through a virtual reality environment while looking in_x000D_
any direction which is commonly referred to as six-dimensional visualization., program purpose french : Immersive virtual reality is gaining acceptance in entertainment and for business. One of the great challenges in_x000D_
