We are looking for partnerships with academic
research and teaching groups to help you to use our visualization facilities,
including development of software. We have been successful in acquiring
grant funding for specific software development. Below are some examples of projects
where staff of the Vislab have integrated visualization into teaching and research.
- Pixzilla - Reacting
to the current needs of NU researchers and
educators and anticipating future needs,
Academic Technologies has built Pixzilla, an
interactive ultra-high resolution
collaborative display environment. This
system is both an image repository that is
accessible from any web browser and a large
interactive tiled display system capable of
displaying 23 millions pixels.
- Mars Stereo Imaging - We have worked
with the Adler Planetarium
& Astronomy Museum to create color stereo images from
the Mars
Exploration Rover mission. These stereo images are used in
undergraduate education and public outreach.
- HST Astronomy Imaging Workbench
- We have developed a workbench
in Java to allow astronomy analysis and visualization for electronic
homework assignments. These electronic homework assignments will
be deployed in several undergraduate astronomy classes. They will
be used both by individuals working on their home PC's as well
as in our visualization lab for group visualization and analysis.
- Astro3d
- Stereoscopic 3D viewer.
- Ghemical
- Added stereoscopic display to molecular
modeling package.
- Planetary Geology
- created interactive 3D interface to a large
image database from the Near Earth Asteroid
Rendezvous (NEAR) mission.
- Stellar Collision Simulation
- helped to create ordinary and stereoscopic
animations from 3D simulations of stellar collisions.
- NUMIS
- ported visualization front end from older
Apollo computer systems to cross-platform
OpenGL systems.
