SUMMARY:Practical Course for Creating Stereoscopic VTuber
DESCRIPTION:Educator's Forum\n\nKatsuhiro Kanamori and Kazuhisa Yanaka (Ka
 nagawa Institute of Technology)\n\nThe authors conduct a practical class f
 or third-year students in the Information Media Studies Department, focuse
 d on creating stereoscopic CG content. They focus on virtual YouTubers (VT
 ubers),  that has been gaining popularity on the internet. Despite the cur
 rent VTubers being created as 3D models, they lack actual stereoscopic cap
 abilities. VTuber characters can feel more lifelike upon introduction of s
 tereoscopic visuals, allowing creators to expand their ideas and unlocking
  significant potential in the metaverse era. In this study, each student c
 aptures video footage of their upper body using their laptop’s web camera.
  Then, they combine various freely available software tools online to crea
 te stereoscopic VTuber videos without the need for special equipment. The 
 students produce content using techniques, such as anaglyph videos (using 
 red-blue glasses), lenticular lenses, and fly’s eye lenses for autostereos
 copic  viewing. They also add audio to the VTuber content, and at the end 
 of the exercise, they hold a “Stereoscopic VTuber” presentation, where mut
 ual evaluations are conducted. Results of the student surveys indicate a p
 ositive outcome in terms of their increased interest in related technologi
 es and enhanced creative motivation. This practical course holds significa
 nt values as an education that combines information media art, system-orie
 nted thinking, and AI technologies.\n\nRegistration Category: Full Access,
