Description

Annotation

This two day course is targeted at researchers with basic knowledge in numerical simulation, who would like to learn how to visualize their simulation results on the desktop, but also in Augmented Reality and Virtual Environments.  It will start with a short overview of scientific visualization, following a hands-on introduction to 3D desktop visualization with COVISE.  On the second day, we will discuss how to build interactive 3D Models for Virtual Environments and how to set up an Augmented Reality visualization.  This course provides scientific training in Computational Science, and in addition, the scientific exchange of the participants among themselves.

About the tutor(s)

Since 2004, Uwe Wössner is heading the visualization department at the Hight Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS). He received his PhD. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Stuttgart in 2009. Since 1996 he is working in the Collaborative Research Center "Rapid Prototyping" established at the University of Stuttgart in the field of VR based virtual and augmented prototyping. He is guest professor and guest lecturer at the IFOER and ITE, TU-Vienna, Austria and at HSR, Rapperswil, Switzerland. He is also Co-founder of VirCinity GmbH. He received international Awards such as the 2003 HPC Challenge and 2006 HPC Bandwidth Challenge. His current research interests include collaborative virtual environments for scientific visualization, Augmented Reality, 3D user interfaces and interaction techniques for computational steering.

Martin Aumüller is a research assistant in the visualisation department at the High Performance Computing Center Stuttgart (HLRS). In international and national projects, he works on bringing large scale simulations to immersive VR systems.  At Nokia, he developed a touch-based operating system for smart phones.  He also worked on distributed visualisation systems at the Computing Center at the University of Cologne (RRZK). He graduated from the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg with a degree in mathematics.
