Greetings ParaView community, Indiana University, in conjunction with the University of Wyoming, Idaho National Lab and Kitware Inc. will be holding the second of two bootcamps on immersive visualization.
The first one, held the week after IEEE VR 2013 went well, though a snowstorm
blasting through central Indiana that week did wreak a little havoc. Other than that though, we had a great time: - http://wiki.iq-station.com/index.php?title=Bootcamp_IUPUI We'll be holding the second bootcamp at the School for Energy Resources (SER) at the University of Wyoming in Laramie from June 12-14. The SER has a brand-new CAVE and a software suite aimed at immersive visualization. Registration for the second bootcamp is now open: - http://iq-station.org/bootcamp.html Of course, we'll be talking about the new VR plugin for ParaView among other topics. The full announcement is below. Thank you, Bill --- Bill Sherman Sr. Technology Advisor Advanced Visualization Lab Pervasive Technology Inst Indiana University sherm...@indiana.edu ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Indiana University is leading a pair of bootcamps on Immersive Visualization software in conjunction with the Idaho National Lab, the University of Wyoming, and Kitware Inc. We have organized two of these bootcamps (both basically the same). The first event, held in Indianapolis in March was well received, and we have now opened registration for the Western bootcamp to be held in Laramie Wyoming in the new Energy Innovation Center (EIC), using the brand new immersive visualization facilities of the School of Energy Resources (SER). Each bootcamp is a full two-day event (but spread over three days). The cost is $200/person -- basically for food and minor expenses. The overall theme is a how-to session for open-source visualization software in VR (leaning toward CAVE-style) environments. Some of the software is Unix-variant oriented, and a handful will work on Windows. Presentations are geared toward teams that make immersive facilities available for scientific analysis, and for scientists seeking tools that can help them take advantage of existing facilities. Planned topics include: * General Purpose Vis (Immersive ParaView) * Point-cloud data (LidarViewer) * Volume Rendering (Toirt Samhlaigh) * Molecular viewer (VMD) * Matlab VR interface * Archeology Vis with CalVR * System configuration * Low-cost Immersive Systems * Human Computer Interface considerations * Workflow examples at INL * Interaction capabilities Registration is now open for the second, "Western", bootcamp to be held at the University of Wyoming June 12-14. The material presented will generally follow the same syllabus as the Indianapolis bootcamp.
