Engagement with the art and music can have a range of positive effects on physical and mental health. However, access to the many benefits of musical experience can be limited due to various reasons: (1) the geographic location of the venue, (2) personal limitations in access, (3) limitation on the schedule of the concerts and performances, (4) cost of the experience. Due to these limitations the effort and cost of getting access to the concerts and performances override additional value the participant would get from the experiences. In XTREME project, we remove these limitations by developing a human-centered mixed reality (MR) solution that, instead of requiring the participant to be physically present in the venue, brings the concerts and performances to a remote location via MR technology while retaining the immersive experience, and even giving additional dimensions to it by integrating real and virtual contents. Our solution also allows for virtually shared, realistic experience together with selected social circles of the user. The solution removes geographic limitations as by the MR solution the concerts and performances can be accessed virtually from anywhere and they hence are more inclusive for people with limited access. Likewise, providing a global access to the art and music provides a wider audience for musicians and artists, not limiting the number of seats by the size of the physical venue. As this solution removes the necessity to travel to concerts and performances, it also provides a greener alternative. In contrast to the current state-of-the-art, our solution targets at making an MR solution to the concerts and performances where those are in in 3D, both for visuals and sound, blended into the room of the users. We will also provide maximised experience of presence via reconstruction of the users and their behaviour in the shared access, and enhance the immersion by providing an additional visual layer to the sound.

参与艺术和音乐可以对身心健康产生一系列积极影响。然而，由于各种原因，获得音乐体验的许多好处可能受到限制：（1）场地的地理位置，（2）访问的个人限制，（3）音乐会和表演时间表的限制，（4）体验的成本。由于这些限制，获得音乐会和表演的努力和成本超过了参与者从体验中获得的额外价值。在XTREME项目中，我们通过开发以人为中心的混合现实（MR）解决方案来消除这些限制，该解决方案不要求参与者亲自出现在场地中，而是通过MR技术将音乐会和表演带到远程位置，同时保留沉浸式体验，甚至通过集成真实的和虚拟内容来为其提供额外的维度。我们的解决方案还允许与用户的选定社交圈一起虚拟共享，现实体验。该解决方案消除了地理限制，因为通过MR解决方案，音乐会和表演几乎可以从任何地方访问，因此对于访问受限的人来说更具包容性。同样，提供全球性的艺术和音乐，为音乐家和艺术家提供了更广泛的观众，而不是限制座位数量的物理场地的大小。由于这种解决方案消除了前往音乐会和表演的必要性，它也提供了一个更环保的选择。与当前最先进的技术相比，我们的解决方案的目标是为音乐会和表演提供MR解决方案，其中包括3D视觉和声音，并融入用户的房间。我们还将通过重建用户及其在共享访问中的行为来提供最大化的存在体验，并通过为声音提供额外的视觉层来增强沉浸感。
