Nine VisBlocks were installed at the Gigapixel Lab at Virginia Tech. The Gigapixel Lab, headed by Dr. Chris North, is conducting research about the human-computer interaction (HCI) issues for large-scale, high-resolution displays. The need for rapid reconfigurability of such displays for empirical research drove the development of the VisBlock product. The current display of 9 VisBlocks has an aggregate resolution of over 8 million pixels. The Gigapixel Lab will be receiving an additional 9 VisBlocks soon for a total of 18 VisBlocks and more than 16 million pixels.

A VisBox-SX8 was installed at the Aeronautical Systems Center Major Shared Resource Center (ASC MSRC) at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio. The VisBox replaces an ImmersaDesk, providing higher resolution and a much larger and brighter display within a small footprint. It features projectors that output 1400×1050 (SXGA+) at over 5000 lumens each! The system was installed as part of a major upgrade to the SciVis lab at ASC MSRC. Details of the upgrade can be found on page 6 of the “Wright Cycles” journal: Link to online version of journal (2.7MB PDF) Image of new SciVis lab floorplan from article Pictures of...

We participated in a VR workshop about “Visualization to Support Human Decision-Making” as it relates to the nuclear power generation industry. The workshop was co-sponsored by the Department of Nuclear, Plasma, and Radiological Engineering (NPRE) at the University of Illinois and the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). The workshop brought together academic researchers, nuclear utility executives, and industry experts from around the world. Technology demonstrations included the VisBox-SX12 system at the NPRE deparment. Discussions centered around the application of VR and visualization technologies to areas such as training, construction/maintenance/decomission planning, and radiation visualization/dosage reduction.
