SESDA Team Supports New Immersive Scientific Visualization System
October 23, 2018
The Heliophysics Science Division (HSD) recently unveiled a new immersive projection system for displaying scientific visualizations. The system (dubbed the WoW room) provides a valuable new resource for showcasing the diverse projects performed within the HSD to visitors and management. The room consists of a 180 degree, 10×20 foot floor to ceiling curved screen along with four projectors and a custom computer. SESDA team members are actively involved in managing the system and helping provide content. At a recent open house, Division scientists and support personnel had a first opportunity to experience the system and explore its capabilities via demonstrations of the SESDA-developed Helioviewer visualization tool.
