AICTE & Meta launches Creators of Metaverse Programme to build India’s future workforce

The programme seeks to equip 100,000 college students and 20,000 faculty members with the essential knowledge and technical skills in Augmented Reality (AR) through the Meta Spark platform.

The All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) and Meta have announced the launch of the ‘Creators of Metaverse’ programme – a pioneering initiative aimed at preparing India’s youth for the future of immersive technology. The launch event took place at the AICTE headquarters in New Delhi.

According to an official release, the ‘Creators of Metaverse’ programme will be managed by One Million for One Billion (1M1B) . It seeks to equip 100,000 college students and 20,000 faculty members with the essential knowledge and technical skills in Augmented Reality (AR) through the Meta Spark platform. The initiative rolled out through the AICTE Training and Learning Bureau (TLB), will play a crucial role in transforming India’s education landscape and fostering innovation among the youth.

New Arrivals in the Library: Augmented Reality: Principles and Practice by Dieter Schmalstieg and Tobias Hollerer

Today’s Comprehensive and Authoritative Guide to Augmented Reality

By overlaying computer-generated information on the real world, augmented reality (AR) amplifies human perception and cognition in remarkable ways. Working in this fast-growing field requires knowledge of multiple disciplines, including computer vision, computer graphics, and human-computer interaction. Augmented Reality: Principles and Practice integrates all this knowledge into a single-source reference, presenting today’s most significant work with scrupulous accuracy. Pioneering researchers Dieter Schmalstieg and Tobias Höllerer carefully balance principles and practice, illuminating AR from technical, methodological, and user perspectives.

Coverage includes

• Displays: head-mounted, handheld, projective, auditory, and haptic
• Tracking/sensing, including physical principles, sensor fusion, and real-time computer vision
• Calibration/registration, ensuring repeatable, accurate, coherent behavior
• Seamless blending of real and virtual objects
• Visualization to enhance intuitive understanding
• Interaction–from situated browsing to full 3D interaction
• Modeling new geometric content
• Authoring AR presentations and databases
• Architecting AR systems with real-time, multimedia, and distributed elements

This guide is indispensable for anyone interested in AR, including developers, engineers, students, instructors, researchers, and serious hobbyists.
