在这里,我们介绍了Narupa IMD,这是一个开源软件包,可以让多个用户共存于同一个虚拟现实空间,并与实时分子模拟进行交互。该框架利用客户端-服务器体系结构,将灵活的Python服务器连接到处理渲染和用户界面的VR客户端。这一设计有助于确保研究社区的实用性,使人们能够轻松访问各种分子模拟引擎,以便以交互速度可视化和操纵模拟的纳米级动力学。
Here we present Narupa iMD, an open-source software package which enables multiple users to cohabit the same virtual reality space and interact with real-time molecular simulations. The framework utilizes a client-server architecture which links a flexible Python server to a VR client which handles the rendering and user interface. This design helps ensure utility for research communities, by enabling easy access to a wide range of molecular simulation engines for visualization and manipulation of simulated nanoscale dynamics at interactive speeds.
