小行星9512272 拟议项目的主要重点是创建虚拟现实和虚拟原型仪器，用于查看科学和工程数据。该大学一直在参与CAVE虚拟现实影院的持续发展，这是一个房间大小的，高分辨率的，基于投影的系统，使用户能够在全3D图像中体验良好的沉浸感。这个项目的目标是扩大范围，使洞穴既小又大。目前正在设计一个较小的、软件兼容的、绘图表格格式的版本，称为ImmersaDesk。它为每个ImmersaDesk使用高端图形系统和投影仪，以及ATM设备，以允许远程ImmersaDesk到ImmersaDesk协作设计会话。 一个更大的高分辨率（1600 x 2048）立体屏幕，称为NII/墙正在为大观众开发。NII/Wall将作为一个门户网站，进入全国各地的联网可扩展计算机，使科学家和工程师可以与运行在共享内存处理器的分布式集群上的模拟进行交互。 ***

9512272 DeFanti The main focus of the proposed project is to create virtual-reality and virtual-prototyping instrumentation for viewing scientific and engineering data. The University has been involved in an ongoing development of the CAVE virtual-reality theater, a room-sized, high-resolution, projection-based system that enables users to experience good immersion in full 3D imagery. The goal of this proposed project is to broaden the scope for making the CAVE both smaller and larger. A smaller, software compatible, drafting-table format version, called ImmersaDesk, is being designed. It uses a high-end graphics system and projector for each ImmersaDesk, and a ATM gear to allow remote ImmersaDesk to ImmersaDesk collaborative design sessions. A larger high-resolution (1600 x 2048) stereo screen, called NII/Wall is being developed for large audiences. The NII/Wall will serve as a portal into networked scalable computers located around the country so scientists and engineers can interact with simulations running on distributed clusters of shared-memory processors. ***
