This use case is aimed at the creation of a holographic support for distance learning environments.
The objective is to add value to the distance learning environment by achieving a sense of physical proximity between teachers and students. This is achieved by using the holographic presence of the speaker who can establish bi-directional communication with his or her students.
5G communication will allow participants to interact with each other and have a conversation, thus breaking down the barriers of remote communication.
The use of a 5G network allows for high data throughput with very low network latency (response time), which makes it possible to send and display holograms bidirectionally.
5G, a new dimension to experience the world
Seeing reality with new eyes. To break down geographical barriers. To feel and practically touch that we are somewhere else. To come a little closer to the gift of ubiquity. To be able to experience situations like never before. All this and much more is what 5G will bring us, a technological revolution that will transform our world.
About 5G Catalunya
The 5G Catalunya project is being developed by a consortium of 8 companies led by Cellnex Telecom and the MASMOVIL Group, with the participation of the Catalan operator Parlem Telecom, the company specialising in augmented reality for industry, Aumenta Solutions, the engineering company Atos, the consultancy Nae, the technology company Lenovo and the start-up Nearby Computing - a spin-off of the Barcelona Supercomputing Center.
5G Catalunya has been one of the winners of the second call for 5G pilot development grants launched at the end of 2019 by Red.es, an entity of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation, in the framework of the National 5G Plan. The initiative is co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
The project consists of seven use cases aimed at developing solutions for urban mobility, remote education, the industrial sector, remote purchasing, audiovisual transmission, security and emergency management in the urban environment and the construction of a neutral multi-operator network to provide connectivity in areas with high seasonal occupation such as the beaches of Barcelona's coastline.
