Potential CAVES Projects
LiDAR Viewer
Earthquake Viewer
Extract earthquake query functionality from the earthquake viewer and put it into other modules, specifically the terrain viewer and fault editor. Equivalent to making the earthquake viewer a vislet (talk to Louise Kellogg; Oliver Kreylos). Need to deal with different coordinate systems, but Oliver has done the basic work on this.
Terrain Viewer?
Nanotech Construction Kit
Dynamics Viewer
3DVisualizer
Add sprites to Visualizer (talk to Louise Kellogg or Oliver Kreylos; Oliver may have to do this.)
Calculate volumes within surfaces
Save specific items created, e.g. slices, isosurfaces, etc. (talk to Oliver Kreylos)
Sound
Computational steering for dynamics
steering during performances (talk to Jim Crutchfield)
Dawn's LineBugs™ (talk to Dawn Sumner or Jim Crutchfield)
dynamics generally (talk to Jim Crutchfield)
connecting visualization and number crunching (talk to Louise Kellogg)
Interfacing Python to drive visualizations
high level python commands that can run the VRUI visualization functions (talk to Jim Crutchfield; Ed Puckett is working on this)
call python from the C++ code (talk to Jim Crutchfield; Ed Puckett is working on this)
3D Work Environment
Develop the ability to save your VRUI workspace. This is easy to add for each individual application, but how should it be approached in the big picture? (talk to Oliver Kreylos, Jim Crutchfield, or Dawn Sumner)
Session management could be taken care of by something between programs and the VR system (talk to Oliver Kreylos, Jim Crutchfield, or Dawn Sumner)
Workflow in CAVES ¿ 2D linux desktop in CAVES
Video conference connection in CAVES
Other Challenging Problems
Wireless gloves
Optical tracking: location and gestrual input
PDA as an input device w/ tracker
Tablet computer as an output device w/ stylus for input
