Building Scientific Visualization, Virtual Reality, CineGrid, Telepresence, and Collaboratories
For 50 years I have used visualization in computational science. At NCSA we set up a pioneering scientific visualization team. My partnership with the leaders of UIC’s Electronic Visualization Lab for 35 years has enabled us to build a sequence of world-leading capabilities in virtual reality, telepresence, and collaboratories, including the StarCAVE and VROOM at Calit2. We partnered with the cinema industry to create the CineGrid workshops which has had presentations on the leading-edge work on high resolution, globally streaming media.
