RELATED PROJECTS
- The AgroTech research group at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya – BarcelonaTech (UPC), together with its spin-off Ugiat Technologies, have driven DoblAI, an AI platform that integrates transcription, translation, subtitling and video dubbing into a single workflow. The solution, which uses deep learning technology and cloned or default voice models, is specifically designed for the journalism and communications sector.
- The AgroTech research group at UPC, in collaboration with its spin-off Ugiat Technologies, has developed uPlayer, a new multimedia player concept that enables more intuitive video navigation and viewing, intelligently enhancing the user experience, especially on YouTube and other platforms, by integrating as a plugin or advanced player.
- The Image and Video Processing Group (GPI), part of the IDEAI-UPC research group, and the Digital Culture and Creative Technologies Research Group (DiCode) from the Image Processing and Multimedia Technology Center (CITM) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya – BarcelonaTech (UPC), have co-organised the AI and Music Festival (S+T+ARTS) together with Sónar+D and Betevé, to explore the creative use of artificial intelligence in music.
- The Visualisation, Virtual Reality and Graphic Interaction Research Group (ViRVIG) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) has participated in the XR4ED project, an initiative that connects the educational technology (EdTech) and Extended Reality (XR) sectors, with the aim of transforming learning and training across Europe.
