This summer, we are exploring how to use immersive visualization techniques to enhance the experience of flying or walking through our virtual body models.

Here are a few impressions of our first steps in the iCentre CAVE. For now, we have reimplemented our Giant Walkthrough Brain project and a model of a Eukaryotic cell.

Contributors to these projects are:

  • Douglas Yuen (MSc student),
  • Tatiana Karaman (MSc CMD student),
  • Markus Santoso (postdoctoral researcher).

We also greatly acknowledge all the help we received from Stephen Cartwright, who so diligently manages the CAVE facility.
