New horizons in immersive visualization at iTHEMS

March 14 (Thu) at 14:00 - 16:00, 2024

Gilles Ferrand (Adjunct Professor, Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Manitoba, Canada)

Visualization is an essential part of research, both to explore one’s data and to communicate one’s findings with others. Data that are 3-dimensional can be explored in a more natural way using virtual reality devices. iTHEMS recently purchased new VR headsets with advanced capabilities (Meta Quest Pro). The meeting will start with a general introduction to the current state of the VR space. Then, participants may individually experience a demonstration with the new headsets (showing research done at the ABBL on supernovae and their remnants). There will be ample time for questions and discussions. Come and discover how such tools can be used to enhance our research.

Venue: 3rd floor public space, Main Research Building
