Virtual Environments Group

The NCSA Virtual Environments Group supplies immersive visualization tools for NCSA's academic, government and industrial partners. As part of the Scientific Computing Division, we provide virtual reality facilities, offer a variety of training opportunities, and maintain an on-line repository of information about virtual environments. Through virtual reality, interactive visualization and user training, the Virtual Environments Group helps scientists see, understand and explain their results.
