High Performance VisualizationPrincipal Investigators: Lubos Brieda, Julien PierruThe main goal of the CAP LAb in this field is to develop a virtual environment for data interpretation purposes. Towards that end we have been using the CAVE Virtual Environment Facility at Virginia Tech and we have developed our own 3D visualization software, CapVTE.  CapVTECapVTE was designed to visualize the geometry, the grid data and particles of CFD or particle codes. For easy interpretation of complex data, CapVTE allows the user to be immersed into the data set using virtual reality technology. The software also allows multiple users in the same virtual environment through a network. This new feature of the software gives the possibility of instant sharing of information about a same set of data. The new version 1.2 of the network allows multiple clients to connect to a server and visualize the data as seen by any other client, giving the control over the client's window to another one. It is usefull for scientist or engineers who need to communicate their results and show in real time the data to interested parties that can be located anywhere in the world.You can check the documentation here  Following is a video of CapVTE in action.
