Project Summary

INTUITION’s VISION is to coordinate and structure the research on VR across Europe, in order to increase the competitiveness of European Groups and promote Europe to become a leading force in VR/VE technologies. This breakthrough that INTUITION aims at, will be realized in:

·

Economical level, creating synergies between industrial, business and education key players, leading to economical profits and competitive advantages for Europe (better served with the Business Office) and

·

Societal level, improving the Quality of Life in work and the education and training (served through the research training opportunities and the foreseen structure for a European Doctoral program) for the citizens.

INTUITION will work towards structuring the VR European Research Area (ERA) in order to overcome the fragmentation of the previous years by performing integration activities exploiting further European Research capabilities in terms of human and equipment resources.
