HILITE
HILITE - High Quality Lighting Simulation: A dynamic, interactive, realistic real-time lighting simulation for complex architectural environments
VKT-GOEPL
Validation of concepts and technologies towards a shared public and private situation report
Interactive Planning
In the applied research project Interactive Planning VRVis and its company partners are building a new real-time visualization system for large infrastructure projects and other geospatial applications. In addition to high performance and realistic display, research challenges include a streamlined workflow from traditional GIS systems and other input data, the inclusion of dynamic scene elements (such as autonomous vehicles that automatically populate roads and railways), and simplified access to advanced shader functionality without the need for expert knowledge.
INFOSAW
Systems for the surveillance of tunnels utilize various sensor data to inform operators in case of emergency situations. In many disaster scenarios, however, avalanches of alarm messages are generated within a short time. This makes it difficult or even impossible for operators to maintain an overview of the situation and to react appropriately. The goal of the project INFOSAW is to significantly increase the situation awareness of operators even in disaster scenarios by providing a system that combines intelligent data processing with innovative visualization techniques.
Semantic Steering
The project Semantic Steering targets a novel integrated steering system called "Visdom" to support the user in the decision making process. The developed concepts enable users to interact with a remote simulation system based on their understanding and to examine alternative scenarios in a short period of time. This is accomplished by combining simulation and visualization into a single, modular and extensible environment.
VICEWORK
The project VICEWORK will research how to make interactive visual analysis a core concept integrating different steps of workflows. The overall objective is to significantly reduce time (and thus costs) for selected tasks of the involved company partners as compared to current workflows. The project addresses five scientific research topics: 1) analyzing families of functions with complex characteristics, 2) an integrated tool chain, 3) a situation-sensitive user interface, 4) decision making in collaborative workshops, 5) and a tight integration of statistical and visual approaches.
IVAN
IVAN is a strategic research project in the area Visual Analysis. As such, IVAN seeks to ensure and strategically extend the degree of innovation of the technology in the next few years. In particular, research in IVAN addresses four main topics: 1) an uncertainty-aware exploration of continuous parameter spaces using multivariate prediction, 2) a generalization of interactive data derivation, 3) a comparative visualization of many categories, and 4) a visual analysis of many relational data tables.
Tactile Paintings
Das Ziel dieses Projekts ist, einen Workflow zur Umwandlung von Gemälden in taktile Repräsentationen für Museumsführungen zu entwickeln. Zweidimensionale Kunst, ursprünglich für sehende Menschen gemacht, soll somit auch für blinde und sehbehinderte Menschen erlebbar werden. Der Fokus liegt dabei darauf, den Künstler so weit wie möglich beim Umwandlungsprozess durch geeignete computerunterstützte Methoden zu unterstützen, und die Produktion mittels Rapid-Prototyping zu vereinfachen.
VILMA
High Resolution Mappang and Visualization of Linear Structures: Together with industry partners the increase in safety through visualization for linear infrastructure is researched
IRIS
IRIS is a EU-funded project with 40 internatonal partners with the goal to increase the safety and security of industrial systems.
