opportunities between users of the same or different MV nodes• Based on open protocols and standards to form a decentralised collection of nodes that send, receive, and store data• Option of using node registry that enables discovery and search experiences across all MediaVerse nodes• Fully decentralized content discovery approach: each node acts as an index server and stores its local resources, while at the same time acts as a router, relaying queries between nodesMedia Rights Negotiation• common digital rights management model for interoperability and automation of the copyrights negotiation procedure between content creators of the MV network• possibility of advanced form of content sharing preserving the IPRs for example by handling negotiation for copyrightable derivative works which refer to adding new original copyrightable authorship to work that is based on pre-existing content• copyrightable collective works which refers to compilations of data or compilations of pre-existing works that may also be copyrightable if the materials are selected, coordinated, or arranged in such a way that the resulting work as a whole constitutes a new workImmersive Storytelling Toolset & VR Multi-user Collaboration Sandbox• a web-based authoring tool will be developed that allows non-experts to author stories using easily created 360 images and videos• MV will allow the authoring of 3D VR spaces where multiple users can collaborate for socializing such as discussing and presenting multimedia information with gesturesEnabling Accessibility•Within MediaVerse, accessibility is considered on both the systems interfaces, as well as content.• "MediaVerse tools for all" is the concept of accessible user interfaces, navigation features, and system usability• “Accessible content for all” is another challenge in the projectAccessibility Toolset• Leverage RA/CU and MediaHub from STXT to support the authoring of accessible content•Capabilities:• Auto

content (immersive, social media)?• Is the accessibility layer a content of its own?• Should the accessibility layer be licensed separately?• How can we make accessible tools and content viable and sustainable?Get Involved• The project will start testing and evaluating the developed tools!• If you are interested, please get in touch so that we can update you on upcoming opportunities.• Follow us
