REU: Software Development Experimental Quantification, and Application Development for Virtual Reality and Real-Time Visualization Systems

小行星9424075 这个本科生项目的研究经验将支持本科生参与计算机图形学，虚拟环境和可视化领域的研究项目。 目标是让大三和大四学生参与长期的研究经验（1-2年），在此期间他们对研究做出真实的贡献，在学术会议上发表论文，并向期刊提交作者或合著者论文。 该研究项目将侧重于软件和算法开发，实验量化以及虚拟现实和实时可视化系统的应用开发。 学生参与者将被分成两组，每组四人。 一个小组将专注于开发三维环境的设计工具，图像显示技术和算法，以及虚拟现实在暴露治疗中的应用。 另一个小组将开发用于科学应用的高度交互式可视化和分析的方法和工具。 这些方法和工具既适用于工作站环境，也适用于虚拟环境，并将基于一套共同的原则。 本科生参与者将在最先进的可视化实验室工作，并每周与参与这些项目的教师和研究生会面。 ***

9424075 Hodges This Research Experiences for Undergraduates project will support undergraduates to participate in research projects in the areas of computer graphics, virtual environments and visualization. The goal is to involve junior and senior students in a long term research experience (1-2 years) in which they make real contributions to the research, present papers at academic conferences, and author or co-author papers submitted to journals. The research project will focus on software and algorithm development, experimental quantification, and application development for virtual reality and real-time visualization systems. The student participants will be split into two groups of four each. One group will focus on the development of design tools for 3-D environments, image display techniques and algorithms, and application of virtual reality to exposure therapy. The other group will develop methods and tools for highly-interactive visualization and analysis in scientific applications. The methods and tools will be both for workstation-based and virtual environments and will be based on a common set of principles. Undergraduate participants will work in a state-of-the-art visualization laboratory and will meet weekly with faculty members and graduate students who are also involved in these projects. ***
