project aims to develop technologies and core applications enabling a new level of user experience by developing end-to-end all-3D imaging mobile phone. Its aim is to have all fundamental functions of the phone – media display, user interface (UI), personal information management (PIM) applications – realized in 3D. We will develop techniques for all-3D phone experience: mobile stereoscopic video, 3D UIs, 3D capture/content creation, compression, rendering, and 3D display. The research and develop algorithms for 3D audio-visual applications: including personal communication, 3D visualization and content management will be held.

3DPhone Project started on 1th of Feburary, 2008. Duration of the project is 3 years and there are 6 participants which are from Turkey, Germany, Hungary, Spain and Finland. Partners are Bilkent University, Fraunhofer, Holografika, TAT, Telefonica and University of Helsinki. 3DPhone is funded by European Community’s ICT programme in Framework Programme Seven.
