MFG Baden-Württemberg will present the “MFG Visual Experience Lab” at FMX 2010, the internationally renowned platform for computer animation, visual effects, games and digital media.  MFG uses this new laboratory to test and research current visualisation trends and technologies together with universities, businesses and talented newcomers from South-West Germany, providing them with an open experimental forum in which to study current trends and projects and test new applications jointly with MFG.

FMX visitors will have the opportunity to learn how these technologies can be integrated into computer games and virtual training worlds, for example at the “MFG Games Track” on May 5 or at the demonstration of the “MFG Visual Experience Lab” on May 6.

For the third consecutive year, MFG has now had an active presence at the eChallenges conference, this year for the first hosted in Istanbul. Once again, an inspiring conference, though it was apparent, that due to the crisis, frozen budgets limited participation especially among the delegates from industry. Nevertheless, both panels with MFG contributions had an interested and broad audience.
From our perspective, we particularly enjoyed the input all around the Living Lab issues. Of course, Istanbul itself provides for a wonderful setting during the evenings.
