** Notice: all internal pipelines have been restricted to 30 minute timeouts, if your CI/CD runs take longer, either use your own runners or read below **
We would remind everyone that the CI/CD services provided by the university Gitlab servers are intended for CI/CD use only (ie. delivering new versions of your software to your production servers, etc).They are not intended for data analysis or -production use, or creating, building and running servers to do heavy data calculation or visualization.
As a general guideline; if your jobs take more than 15 minutes, you might be running something that is better suited for a dedicated system or a virtual server - in this case, please contact the helpdesk for a solution to your needs.

***O4.2:** Utilise the platform with the Namibia campus during the MSc degree programme and generate a publication on tele-immersive remote presence across continents and cultures.
***O4.3:** Use the platform for non-remote data capture for participant research, providing at least some analysis or data extraction tools to demonstrate potential towards S1 and S4.
# 2. OVERALL DESCRIPTION
The prototype will be a new platform that enables the capture, mixing, filtering, analysis, recording and streaming of 3D audio-visual data in a modular and flexible manner so that individual data sources or algorithms can be replaced or evolved in the future. The key components are therefore:
***C1:** 3D Scene Capture from fixed lab spaces as a 3D-AV data source
***C2:** 3D-AV mixing and filtering system, regardless of data source
***C3:** 3D-AV Analysis system to extract higher-level data about a scene
***C4:** Recording 3D-AV and playback as a data source
***C5:** Lossless and lossy compression of 3D-AV for storage and streaming
