9512272 DeFanti拟议项目的主要重点是创建用于查看科学和工程数据的虚拟现实和虚拟样机仪器。该大学一直在参与CAVE虚拟现实剧院的持续开发，这是一种房间大小、高分辨率、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体验。这个拟议项目的目标是扩大洞穴的范围，使其变得更小和更大。一个更小的、软件兼容的绘图表格式版本，称为ImmersaDesk，正在设计中。它为每个ImmersaDesk使用高端图形系统和投影仪，并使用ATM设备允许ImmersaDesk远程到ImmersaDesk进行协作设计会话。一种更大的高分辨率(1600x2048)立体声屏幕正在开发中，名为NII/WALL，面向大量观众。NII/WALL将作为进入全国各地联网可扩展计算机的门户，因此科学家和工程师可以与在共享内存处理器的分布式集群上运行的模拟进行交互。***

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. ***
