Purpose

The goal of the Computer Visualization Laboratory (CVL) is to investigate methodologies for integrating computing and visual communication, to explore technologies that make feasible the fusion between the two, and to provide state-of-the-art video production and multimedia publication capabilties for use in research and instruction. The laboratory acquires, promotes, and disseminates video and visualization technology and know-how within the University and provides a research environment for the activities of the Concurrent Systems Group.

Equipment

The Computer Visualization Laboratory has unique broadcast-quality video production facilities. They include a sophisticated video camera and a Panasonic video editing station which is capable of recording images from the various computer displays and provides extensive video tape editing capabilities. Three SGI workstations offer high performance graphic rendering capabilities and mey be accessed via the network in order to transfer images to video tape for editing. Two Macintosh computers form the core of an expanding multimedia publication capability which includes scanners and a photo-quality color printer.


Services

A growing number of researchers are taking advantage of the unique facilities existing in the laboratory and of the Pavane system which offers sophisticated visualizations without the burden of costly software development. Recent outside collaborations involve chemical engineering, electrical engineering, physics, and medicine.
