CISE-RR: Advancing Visualization Projects Through the Use of High-Performance Virtual Reality Systems

EIA-0224671Jeffrey T.克拉克布赖恩M. SlatorNorth Dakota州立大学- FargoCISE RR：通过使用高性能虚拟现实系统推进可视化项目这一来自EPSCoR州的提案，促进了计算机可视化研究的发展，旨在获得设备以支持北达科他州的州立大学考古技术实验室。 该研究涉及使用引人注目的数字可视化体验和真实的模拟虚拟世界来支持以下项目：1。虚拟重建像一个鱼钩村（将在遗产中心-国家博物馆-在俾斯麦和文化中心的三个附属部落在新城），2。虚拟重建的一个斜村（在亚伯拉罕林肯堡博物馆在曼丹展出），和3。一个SGI现实中心作为一个国家或最先进的技术增强目前NDSU设施和计算机可视化能力将有助于虚拟重建那些村庄和计算机模拟策略类游戏糖尿病教育。 这项工作促进了考古学、人类学和博物馆学的项目。 期望在最高水平上开发和托管各种虚拟3D环境，并将虚拟世界发送到多个远程位置进行并发显示，设备和必要的软件系统将在研究和教育共享高细节3D内容的能力方面实现质的飞跃。

EIA-0224671Jeffrey T. ClarkBrian M. SlatorNorth Dakota State University - FargoCISE RR: Advancing Vidualization Projects Through the Use of High-Performance Virtual Reality SystemsThis proposal from an EPSCoR state, fostering development in computer visualization research, aims at acquiring equipment to support North Dakota's State University Archeological Technologies Lab. The research involves the use of compelling digital visualization experiences and authentic simulated virtual worlds to support the following projects:1. Virtual reconstruction of Like-a-Fishhook Village (to be displayed at the Heritage Center - state museum - in Bismarck and the Cultural Center of Three Affiliated Tribes in New Town),2. Virtual reconstruction of On-a-Slant Village (for display at the Fort Abraham Lincoln Museum in Mandan), and3. Immersive virtual environment of a Native American powwow-dancing competition for use in diabetes prevention in Native American youth.An SGI Reality Center as a state-or-the-art technology augmentation to current NDSU facility and computer visualization capabilities will contribute to the virtual reconstructions of the villages and the computer simulation game for diabetes education. The work facilitates projects in archeology, anthropology, and museology. Expecting to develop and host a variety of virtual 3D environments at the highest levels and to send the virtual worlds to multiple remote location for concurrent display, the equipment and requisite software systems will constitute a qualitative leap in the capabilities to share high-detail 3D content for both research and education.
