Since the foundation of COEZBAY GMBH we are in direct contact with the IHK. In the last years we have visited many of the events personally and also participated online. We can recommend the direct contact with the IHK to everyone who has questions concerning self-employment or foundation.

IHK employees are also available personally at any time during regular working hours. For this reason, it is also possible to simply call the respective department for advice in case of spontaneous incidents or inquiries.

This is why the website of the Chamber of Industry and Commerce is always a good place to go before you go into action. We ourselves have not taken up the offer of start-up assistance. However, you don’t have to miss out on it if it can make it easier to get started.

Even though it can be useful to teach yourself everything yourself, you can save unnecessary costs. Especially when you realize that you have to pay the IHK fees anyway, as soon as you found an official company in Germany.

We thank the IHK Munich and Upper Bavaria for the contribution and are happy to provide you with the links and content of the IHK Magazine Munich Upper Bavaria here on our blog. Above all special thanks to the Author Josef Stelzer.

The text passage of the IHK Magazine Munich contribution in English:

Whole areas for hours without electricity. The reason? The cable was cut by an excavator. This happens very often with gas pipelines and other supply networks as well.

Mixed reality headsets with integrated motion sensors and headphones can see at a glance, where excavations permitted and where not. This is an huge advantage for engineers or construction workers. “By using geographical data of the underground pipelines, mixed reality helps to avoid damage and construction delays.” Explains Cagatay Oezbay, founder and managing director of COEZBAY GmbH in Grunwald.

We can use Mixed reality systems to automatically recognize machines or people on the construction site. One receives suggestions on how to deal with the situation on the basis of this information. The 35-year-old entrepreneur says: “In bridge and road construction, mixed reality offers enormous potential”. And not only there. “In the future, numerous new fields of application will open up for Mixed Reality”, Oezbay expects.

In the coming months, it will be our task to press ahead with further expansion and to complete projects. We are also planning to expand our team. We are still looking for sales experts to accompany us on our way.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported us and look forward to the next adventures together.

We also took this opportunity to adapt the corporate design a bit and created an intro video for the company website.

And for the contact area we were inspired by the first aerial view of our company. Just check the contact area on the company page or have a look here.

The finished image film:

All in all, this project was a complete success. Firstly we took the opportunity to personally experience TIMEHOUSE from all perspectives. In other words, we were often on site, talking to the management and staff to get an idea of TIMEHOUSE’s identity. To sum up, we were convinced that TIMEHOUSE’s terrific team is simply fabulous. As a result, we were very much involved in the interior design and the possibilities on site. For instance, we were very impressed by the attention to detail in the selection of home accessories. In addition we liked the economical and sustainable use of the cosmetic articles. Special attention was paid to the charging stations for electric vehicles.
In conclusion, the implementation phase was relatively quick. In the following some impressions in the Making-Of.

Making Of – Timehouse Image Film Project:

In this project we not only found new customers but also friends.
Many thanks for the excellent cooperation!

Our task was to make the underground rooms virtually accessible for various applications. Radioactivity and the life-threatening environment, made us use laser scan data to create the virtual scenes. We optimized the data and prepared it for real-time use. Then we started the programming work, which was simultaneously accompanied by the visual experience.

Real-time exposure posed a particular challenge because it is usually very dark underground. For this reason, we used a lot of artificial real-time lighting, which we have individually adapted to each room. We also adjusted many textures to reflect the realism of the scenery.

We realized this project in cooperation with the Team of BGE and Greenpost GmbH. While we took care of the content, it was the task of Greenpost GmbH to program the hardware solution and the interfaces.

Just like airplanes, copters should also carry position lights and collision warning lights during a Drone flight at night. Or in other words this is what you need for a Drone flight at night with the right light:

Red light that shines unobstructed from just ahead to the left over an angle of 110 degrees up and down;

Green light that shines unobstructed from directly ahead to the right over an angle of 110 degrees up and down;

White light that shines unobstructed from just behind to the left and to the right. Over an angle of 70 degrees up and down.

The position lamps may be either continuous or flashing and shall have a prescribed intensity.
The red and green light must be at least 5 candelas and the white tail light at least 3 candelas. The legal requirements for position and collision warning lights can be found at the DSF “German Air Traffic Control“.

It was a special pleasure for us to be able to participate in this event. Together we should support LGBT+tech communities much more.

So here are a few impressions from the Unicorns in Tech Event.

A little more input:

Speaking Unicorns in Tech has given us the opportunity to get feedback from people from a wide range of industries and fields. So we met many new friends and were able to see further perspectives. Furthermore, it was interesting to get feedback from people outside the industry. On the basis of this feedback we are optimizing our HR (Human Resources) to become even more accessible to the general public.

Special thanks to the teams of Unicorns in Tech and Strascheg Center for Entrepreneurship (SCE).

The Unicorns in Tech network is an international LGBT+ tech community.
To be precise, a network founded by the UHLALA Group. Since 2014, they have grown into a large community of more than 3400 unicorns who are passionate about technology and its latest trends.

At this point we can only recommend everyone to visit as many trade shows as possible. Here are a few reasons:

Escaping the office

Boredom and dissatisfaction can be fatal. So, escaping the wall-facing desk in favour of stretching your legs and heading down to an exhibition is a matter of curiosity.

Networking

The old adage, “It’s not what you know, but who you know” is truer than ever today.
Exhibitions provide many opportunities to connect with the local and global industry community, allowing you to meet like-minded individuals and subsequently, leverage the best contacts – this is invaluable in today’s competitive market.
Not only will you meet them in both a professional and social environment but, you’ll also get to break down those awkward barriers around networking etiquette which will allow you to comfortably mix business and pleasure.

Learning, knowledge and trends

Depending on the sector you’re working in, exhibitions can be a great place to polish up your industry skills and find out about the latest innovations and trends. These events often afford the opportunity to listen to insightful keynotes and absorb the wisdom of thought-leaders and innovators.
They also give a good indication of where things are headed and you can get a chance to learn as much as possible.

Physical interaction

Exhibitions are great interactive environments. They are full of live demonstrations and new products that give you the opportunity to examine, handle, compare, see, smell, experience and test-drive.
In this fully immersive environment, you can become one with your chosen field.

Creative engagement

Creative engagement at an art exhibition may be a given, but even at trade shows exhibitors often pull out all the stops in order to immerse visitors in a visceral experience.
Beautifully crafted pop up stands, innovative technology and impressive engineering all equate to a thought-provoking creative experience that will inspire you, or just leave you feeling warm and fuzzy.

Negotiations

Sales is generally at the forefront of the exhibitor’s mind and so, here’s your opportunity to buy, negotiate and sell.
That human touch, those charming bartering techniques and those upfront payments are irresistible to the average exhibitor… and visitors know this. There isn’t much obvious room for you to exercise your negotiation skills online so discounts at your favourite exhibition are a very real possibility.

Direct access to the big players

Research further suggests that one-third of visitors are looking for new suppliers. Opportunity is ripe! As is expert advice on specific commercial challenges.
Forget trawling through web sources, forums and social media profiles – casual approaches and face-to-face appointments with key suppliers are fair game and a perfect way to ask questions. It’s also a perfect chance to build bridges with the powerful players.

Competition

Hundreds of thousands of businesses market themselves at exhibitions every year. So, if you’re a visiting competitor, sizing up the other fish in your pond and scouting enemy positions is an integral part of the exhibition. If you’re simply interested in the market, you can neutrally observe and make informed comparisons.

Job hunting

If you’re keen for a new challenge or are just a bit fed up with your everyday work routine, you’ve probably been to a job fair. We’ve all seen the types that wear jeans and t-shirts to work, travel to the office on a scooter, play Games in their lunch break and have access to a ready supply of deliciously unhealthy snacks. Surely it’s only fair that you get a slice of that pizza? Exhibitions give you the chance to window-shop to your heart’s content, sampling what’s on offer in the world of business.

We are really very thankful for everyone we got to know during this time. Especially the people from the big companies who brought us close to the different industries. And you know who is meant here. In the meantime many of our friends have changed positions or even companies, so that from now on we will be remembered more via the common social media platforms and conventional telephoning. Of course we are always happy when one of you picks up the phone and calls through. Just let us hear from you again if we appear in your memory.

COEZBAY says THANK YOU for the last couple of years full of traveling, fun, knowledge, exchange and Rock & Roll!

Thank you all and on to the next adventures!

Talks:

Traugott Emrich – Photogrammetry for VR for beginners

360° video technology is impressive. It lacks the ability to move physically in the virtual world. Photogrammetry gives us the possibility to visualize real places in 3D. For instance to visualize an office or to digitalize a warehouse. In other words, you can create an image of reality.

What is Photogrammetry?
Photogrammetry is a group of measuring and evaluation methods. Remote sensing to determine the spatial position or 3d shape of an object from photographs and precise measurement images.

Traugott Emrich https://www.aerofotografie.de/ gives an overview of the right entry into this exciting technology and how to achieve amazing results with a manageable budget.

COEZBAY GMBH – KanDao Obsidian 360 Camera – HandsOn

Cagatay Oezbay, https://www.coezbay.com founder of COEZBAY GMBH and consultant in the areas of Virtual-Reality and Real-Time Applications, will demonstrate the latest camera for stereoscopic 360-degree shots.

A standard 360 video is just a flat equirectangular video. Displayed on a sphere you can look around inside. Think of it like the face of a world map on a globe, but with VR your head is on the inside of the globe looking at the inner surface. As you move, the head tracking on your device moves with you, giving you that feeling like you are inside the scene.

However Stereoscopic 3D can add another level of immersion by adding depth data between the foreground and background. Your favorite 3D blockbuster movies usually shot with 2 lenses side by side. This way, each eye gets a different angle of view when watching. Like any production, this can look strange if poorly implemented, or absolutely amazing if done right.

With stereoscopic 3D in VR, that depth information has to be overlaid and mapped to sphere. Because of parallax between cameras, this can be challenging. Any minor flaws or “stitch seams” in the footage are magnified in 3D, and sometimes anomalies occur in different places per eye – which makes it uncomfortable to watch. Therefore Cagatay Oezbay will and can show you different HowTo’s to avoid the most common issues.

Clarance Dadson Design4real will bring the Samsung Odyssey Windows Mixed Reality VR Headset.

Here we go with some impressions of the VR 360 Video Meetup meets Burda Bootcamp event.

At this point it should also be mentioned that we were very impressed with the interior design of the BurdaStudios. The choice of murals was extremely creative and we also liked the impressive wooden wall right in the entrance area.

The physical well-being was also taken care of. Therefore both great sandwiches and drinks for every taste. As it is for Bavaria, good beer is also a must. Even though we personally abstained from drinking alcohol and unfortunately arrived with a full stomach.

All in all it was an extremely successful event. We especially liked the networking component. We were able to meet many old friends from the industry and got to know many new faces. Of course we are looking forward to the next event.

Augsburg University of Applied Sciences is a German university located in Augsburg. Founded in 1971, but its institutional roots as an art academy go back to 1670. With more than 6,000 students the Augsburg University of Applied Sciences is one of the largest institutions of its kind in Bavaria.

Some points of the program list: Insights in professional drone flying, talks about 360-degree movie making, hands-on and networking at it’s finest.
The highlight: The presentation of the new KanDao Obisidian R VR camera.

Extract from the workshop

Special thanks to Julian Leupold, who organized the 360 VR Drone Workshop University of Applied Sciences Augsburg with and for us.

It was an interesting experience to hold this workshop with the students of the University of Applied Sciences Augsburg. After the young ladies and gentlemen were all from the subject, the workshop got down to business relatively quickly. For this reason, we were able to immerse ourselves in technical details and the first tests relatively quickly. We particularly enjoyed the Q & A with the professors and students. As you will notice, especially the questions from Prof. Dr. Michael Kipp. In conclusion – This showed us that there is a lot of interest in the topics. Above all very sobering and motivating, to find out, that the future of the media is partly in the hands of such motivated young people.

Julian is an Art Director Motion at Jung von Matt with a strong background in interaction design, innovative conception, interactive storytelling, motion design and film. Focused on the interface between interaction design and linear media.

We thank for the successful event and wish all participants continued success.

All in all it was a successful test. Even though the neighbors felt a little annoyed for a short time about the noise caused, an agreement was reached and we were able to complete our test successfully. After a good preparation and adjustment of the individual components, it is easy for us to create 360 degree content with the drone. This also means that in the coming weeks we will realize the same tests under a helicopter. Already today we can say that we will unfortunately not provide the content due to data protection guidelines.
