Description
These sessions are open to DITC members only. AZ-LIVE (Arizona Laboratory for Immersive Visualization Environments) is a room where university researchers, faculty, and students can be immersed in a three dimensional, computer generated world. This type of immersive environment is commonly referred to as a CAVE (Cave Advanced Visualization Environment). The environment combines 3D computer graphics, stereoscopic projection technology, acoustical tracking devices, and four-channel audio to create the illusion of being present in a virtual world. The environment utilizes a multi-processor, high performance computing cluster capable of handling and displaying large datasets. The advanced projection and tracking system, along with the computing technology in AZ-LIVE, combine to create an environment in which a wide range of applications, models, and virtual worlds can be displayed and navigated interactively.
