SUMMARY:Practical Course for Creating Stereoscopic VTuber
DESCRIPTION:Katsuhiro Kanamori and Kazuhisa Yanaka (Kanagawa Institute of 
 Technology)\n\nThe authors conduct a practical class for third-year studen
 ts in the Information Media Studies Department, focused on creating stereo
 scopic CG content. They focus on virtual YouTubers (VTubers),  that has be
 en gaining popularity on the internet. Despite the current VTubers being c
 reated as 3D models, they lack actual stereoscopic capabilities. VTuber ch
 aracters can feel more lifelike upon introduction of stereoscopic visuals,
  allowing creators to expand their ideas and unlocking significant potenti
 al in the metaverse era. In this study, each student captures video footag
 e of their upper body using their laptop’s web camera. Then, they combine 
 various freely available software tools online to create stereoscopic VTub
 er videos without the need for special equipment. The students produce con
 tent using techniques, such as anaglyph videos (using red-blue glasses), l
 enticular lenses, and fly’s eye lenses for autostereoscopic  viewing. They
  also add audio to the VTuber content, and at the end of the exercise, the
 y hold a “Stereoscopic VTuber” presentation, where mutual evaluations are 
 conducted. Results of the student surveys indicate a positive outcome in t
 erms of their increased interest in related technologies and enhanced crea
 tive motivation. This practical course holds significant values as an educ
 ation that combines information media art, system-oriented thinking, and A
 I technologies.\n\nRegistration Category: Full Access, Enhanced Access, Tr
