World Wide Web procedural documents are being developed to assist scientists with various visualization tasks. The visualization theatre was designed to be multi-purpose and to be easy to reconfigure. Two modes of stereo projection are available. The first, called polar eyes , produces the stereo effect via two projectors and polarized lenses and glasses. The second, called crystal eyes , uses a single projector, an infrared emitter, and LCD glasses.
Crystal eyes is also available on the desk top.
Users who currently have crystal eyes applications can port them to the visualization theatre. Normal 2D and 3D computer projection, using SGI or SUN workstations, PCs, or MACs, is also possible. For assistance with data visualization, digital recording, or use of the visualization theatre, contact the CCD visualization team.
