Demo: 6G-Powered Immersive Technologies for Metaverse-Like Virtual Broadcasting

This demonstration presents how 6G-enabled immersive communication can transform the broadcasting industry through real-time holographic telepresence. Traditional 2D videoconferencing is increasingly being complemented by Social VR and Metaverse platforms, which enhance interaction and co-presence in shared virtual environments. Leveraging these trends, the presented system integrates volumetric capture, extended reality (XR), and low-latency 6G connectivity to enable remote participants to appear as realistic 3D holograms within a virtual broadcast studio. The demonstration uses Brainstorm’s InfinitySet, a state-of-the-art XR and virtual production platform, to seamlessly merge holographic guests with real-time broadcast graphics and green-screen footage of the host. By combining high-throughput communication, edge processing, and synchronised rendering, the system achieves lifelike, interactive telepresence between remote and in-studio participants. This proof of concept showcases the potential of 6G networks and immersive media technologies to enable the next generation of broadcasting, which is more interactive, flexible, and engaging for both producers and audiences.
