The “EXtended-PErsonal Reality”: augmented recording and transmission of virtual senses through artificial-IntelligENCE
LabLENI takes part of a new european project
This Project will allow every person to share an EXPERIENCE, making real the complex interplay between multisensory information and emotions experienced by another person. EXPERIENCE will augment future digital social interplay by manipulating one´s internal representation of virtual space-time, radically changing the phenomenological interplay in its physiological and affective dimensions.

The EXPERIENCE Project will contribute to the creation of the Extended-Personal Reality, a ready-, and simple-to-use hardware and software technology allowing everyone to generate their own VR environment. Each single person becomes a provider. A new VR environment will also be automatically generated, from personal neurophysiological data of the individual provider and will be equipped with psychological, cognitive, neurophysiological and behavioural information to constitute the person´s extended-personal reality. This may be shared with other persons, the users, for a new kind or personal EXPERIENCE and social interaction. The user will relive the shared provider´s experience through VR-based, visual-auditory and tactile stimuli, space-time manipulation, and multiple biofeedback. EXPERIENCE shall effectively communicate the provider´s emotions to allow access to previously unreachable consciousness layers.

This project is funded by the European Commission Horizon 2020 - Research and Innovation Framework Programme.
