Aim:
The student shall, after finishing this course, be able to:
- use common techniques for data exploration and analysis, and virtual reality to implement visualization and computer graphics applications.
- use tracking and correct view projection to implement one-to-one
mapping between real and virtual coordinates
- use common software systems to implement basic multi-sensory
interaction and visualizations

Organisation:
The course introduces theories and practical examples within the lectures. In laboratory exercises the students will try out the practical use of various tools and thus acquire skills necessary for using software packages for visualization. Furthermore, VR principles will be applied to correct the graphical view.
