Instrumentation in Support of Interactive Visualization, Computation and Simulation.
Abstract
This research accomplished as a result of this effort focused on the alliance of elements of virtual reality technology and elements of scientific visualization to address issues of mine detection and related spatial and volumetric visualization problems. By virtual environments, we meant an immersive visual and audio technology such that experimenter has little or no awareness of the real environment. For our purposes of data visualization, this was intended as a focusing devise so that the experimenter has a heightened sense of awareness of the problem at hand thus, can concentrate in a natural way his or her full mental resources. Much of currently fashionable work on scientific visualization bad been focused on rendering on flow fields arising from combustion or meteorological applications, molecular, atomic or subatomic particle dynamics, and other settings modeled with partial differential equation models. Our focus had been, in contrast, or data representation, exploratory data analysis and model building using high performance computer graphics, much of which has recently emerged under the name data mining.
