A digital twin is only useful if it reflects the world as it changes. Francesco Vona, senior research scientist at the Immersive Reality Lab, joins host Jan-Niklas Voigt-Antons to explain how DIDYMOS-XR combines sensor data, artificial intelligence (AI), and extended reality (XR) to keep virtual models up to date. They discuss everyday uses, from city navigation to industrial inspection, and why privacy, human oversight, and testing with real users matter as much as the technology.

ARiadne explores how augmented reality (AR), spatial sound, and haptic cues can help pedestrians navigate a city. Julie Henning, a research scientist at the Immersive Reality Lab, joins host Jan-Niklas Voigt-Antons to explain the project’s approach to inclusive navigation. They discuss guidance tailored to different needs, early user research, and how to guide people without competing for their attention.

Welcome to Inside Immersion, the podcast of the Immersive Reality Lab at Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences (HSHL). In this trailer, host Jan-Niklas Voigt-Antons explains why the podcast was started and previews the five conversations of season one: ARiadne, DIDYMOS-XR, DigiOnTrack, SilentBedMonitor, and MIA-PROM. A new episode is released on the first day of every month.
