We aim to democratize extended reality (XR) systems research, development, and benchmarking by providing
A reference open source end-to-end XR system testbed, with state-of-the-art components connected with a modular runtime
A benchmarking methodology for XR systems, including reference system configurations, applications, data sets, and metrics
A community where the multidisciplinary XR systems research and development stakeholders come together
The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has launched IMMERSE, the Center for Immersive Computing, led by Professor Sarita Adve. The multidisciplinary center brings together experts in immersive technologies, applications, and human experience for research, education, and infrastructure to accelerate a new era of immersive computing.
Sarita Adve gave a talk on ILLIXR at the Hot3D session at High Performance Graphics 2022. Talk is available here.
Sarita Adve gave a talk on ILLIXR at the Sandia National Labs' 4th Annual XR Conference in July 2022. Talk is available here.
Sarita Adve has received a $5M Principles and Practice of Scalable Systems (PPoSS) grant from the National Science Foundation to develop design methodologies for a scalable, domain-specific, heterogeneous, distributed edge/cloud system with stringent constraints on latency, energy, thermal power, computational requirements, and size.
ILLIXR IEEE MICRO Top Pick version is available here!
ILLIXR Consortium open meetings start on February 16th! Check out Open Meetings page for more detail.
The IISWC'21 paper describing ILLIXR has been selected as an IEEE Micro Top Pick - a competition for the twelve most significant research papers in computer architecture published in 2021 based on novelty and potential for long-term impact.
ILLIXR received the Best Paper Award from IEEE International Symposium on Workload Characterization (IISWC) for their paper entitled "ILLIXR: Enabling End-to-End Extended Reality Research".
HoloAR was published in MICRO 2021 using ILLIXR!
Sarita Adve has received a $1M CISE community research infrastructure grant from the National Science Foundation to bolster ILLIXR as community infrastructure for extended reality research
