These pages introduce MRConferece project,
a Mixed Reality (MR) teleconferencing
application based on Second Life (SL) and the OpenSim virtual
world. Augmented Reality (AR) techniques are used for
displaying virtual avatars of remote meeting participants in real
physical spaces, while Augmented Virtuality (AV), in form of
video based gesture detection, enables capturing of human
expressions to control avatars and to manipulate virtual objects in
virtual worlds. The use of Second Life for creating a shared
augmented space to represent different physical locations allows
us to incorporate the application into existing infrastructure. The
application is implemented using open source Second Life viewer
and ARToolkit and OpenCV libraries.
