Hearing Is Not Enough – Understanding Matters. CTU FEE Helps Study Military Voice Communication
How intelligible is a voice message transmitted over military radio communications under challenging conditions? And how much effort does the recipient have to make to understand the information correctly? These are the questions addressed by research into digital voice communication conducted jointly by the University of Defence and the Faculty of Electrical Engineering at CTU (CTU FEE), together with members of the Czech Armed Forces and experts from the Czech defence industry.
Portraits That Come to Life and the DNA of a Racing Car. CTU FEE Brings Two Installations to Signal Festival
What would a portrait look like if it copied your smile, head movements or even subtle changes in expression in real time? Visitors to this year’s Signal Festival will be able to experience this for themselves thanks to FaceIt, a technology developed with the participation of researchers from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering at CTU in Prague. The interactive installation builds on research by Prof. Daniel Sýkora’s team and can transfer a person’s facial expressions onto a stylized portrait in real time. CTU FEE’s second major contribution to the festival will be the audiovisual projection EFORCE: DNA of Champions, tracing more than fifteen years of CTU’s student Formula car development. Visitors will find both installations on Technická Street in Dejvice from 15 to 18 October – FaceIt on the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering building and EFORCE on the façade of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering.
