DOME 4.0: Launching Lhumos, a powerful tool for showcases and tutorials

In the ever-evolving landscape of digital education and project showcasing, the introduction of Lhumos marks a significant milestone. This innovative platform, developed in collaboration between CECAM, MARVEL, and MAX, is designed to revolutionize how training materials are delivered and how projects like DOME 4.0 are presented to a global audience.

Lhumos leverages the latest in web technology, employing a REACT frontend paired with the Clowder framework for its backend operations. This combination ensures a seamless, intuitive user experience while maintaining the robustness and flexibility required for handling complex datasets and materials.

One of the most groundbreaking features of Lhumos is its use of automatic metadata extractors. These extractors are designed to enhance accessibility and navigation through the platform. For instance, they can generate lightweight PDF previews, making content more accessible to individuals with limited internet connectivity. Moreover, the platform utilizes OCR technology to detect changes in slides within a video presentation. This allows for the creation of a dynamic navigation system, where users can click on a slide thumbnail and jump directly to the corresponding segment in the video. This innovative approach not only improves user engagement but also makes the educational content more accessible and easier to digest.

 

The public launch of Lhumos was celebrated with a webinar on January 15th, attracting over 150 attendees from around the globe. The event was a resounding success, with active participation and numerous questions highlighting the community's interest and enthusiasm for this new platform.
