EIA-0101242James GriffioenUniversity of KentuckyCISE Research Infrastructure: The Metaverse: A Laboratory for Digital Media NetworksThe primary goal of our research is to investigate and develop new techniques to support networked, collaborative, visually immersive environments and applications. The objective is to design visually compelling collaborative spaces (where people interact with computer simulations and each other) that are inexpensive, extensible, automatically configurable, adaptable, and scalable. The work involves an interdisciplinary team of researchers exploring system-level issues including visualization, network communication, and computer vision, with others studying application-level issues such as scientific (CFD) visualization, presentation of new-media/art, and the educational efficacy and impact of the technology.The requested infrastructure will be used to create three physically separate, networked visualization laboratories supported by two new technical staff. Each visualization environment will have a distinct configuration and objective. The CORE (COllaborative Rendering Environment) will explore compelling collaborative immersive spaces, while the VIDE (Visually Immersive Display Environment) investigates stereo visualization. Unlike the CORE and VIDE, where users are immersed in pixels, the DOME (Digital Object Media Environment) will be a head-tracked ``outside looking in'' configuration. The environments will demonstrate the versatility of the underlying base technology by using the same techniques to support multiple application domains. A fourth environment will be deployed at the University of Puerto Rico.

EIA-0101242James Griffioen 肯塔基大学 CISE 研究基础设施：元宇宙：数字媒体网络实验室我们研究的主要目标是研究和开发新技术以支持网络化、协作式、视觉沉浸式环境和应用程序。 目标是设计具有视觉吸引力的协作空间（人们与计算机模拟交互以及彼此交互），这些空间廉价、可扩展、自动配置、适应性强且可扩展。这项工作涉及一个跨学科研究团队，探索包括可视化、网络通信和计算机视觉在内的系统级问题，其他人则研究应用级问题，例如科学 (CFD) 可视化、新媒体/艺术的呈现和教育效果所需的基础设施将用于创建三个物理上独立的网络可视化实验室，并由两名新技术人员提供支持。 每个可视化环境都有不同的配置和目标。 CORE（协作渲染环境）将探索引人注目的协作沉浸式空间，而 VIDE（视觉沉浸式显示环境）则研究立体可视化。与用户沉浸在像素中的 CORE 和 VIDE 不同，DOME（数字对象媒体环境）将是一种头部跟踪的“由外向内”配置。 这些环境将通过使用相同的技术来支持多个应用程序域，从而展示底层基础技术的多功能性。 第四个环境将部署在波多黎各大学。
