| Aim: To provide a deep insight into what virtual reality is, what it´s for and how it can be implemented and exploited. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) TNM068 Computer Graphics, TNM008 3D Computer Graphics and Virtual Reality, TNG002 Linear Algebra Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Organisation: The course will consist of lectures and laboratory work. Students taking this course will be given access to the NVIS VR lab and associated hardware to carry out some of the lab work. |
|||
| Course contents: The course covers a wide range of aspects associated with the specification, design, development and implementation of virtual reality environments for many classes of equipment. We will consider many kinds of 3D (stereo) display systems from the desktop to large scale VR theatre and Cube/Cave systems, head-mounted displays for virtual and augmented reality, methods for the effective implementation of high-performance computer graphics, interaction techniques for VR environments and the use of sound and other senses such as touch to create convincing and useful immersive environments for a broad spectrum of applications. The emphasis within this course is on the creation of working, usable immersive environments through a broad range of interface and feedback approaches, not simply high performance graphics although that is an essential component of the course. |
