The video focuses on the approach to procedural manufacturing of Luminous Engine, in the description, it is stated that this proprietary environmental creator has the power to fill open worlds “in a natural yet intentional way.” In addition, the developers will present talks on automating Quality Assurance using collision-aware 3D pathfinding and deep learning.
