The goal of nerve is to determine if current consumer brain computer interface (BCI) devices will act as a good interface for an immersed virtual environment. Using the campus SIVE (Simulation and Interaction in Virtual Environments) lab and the Emotiv Epoc to preform experiments, and the Blender Game Engine to create a controllable virtual environment. Project ongoing. MuVR (multi-user virtual reality) MuVR is a project with goals to create an immersive virtual reality platform that is easily accessible, readily available, self containing, and multi-user. Using exclusively consumer products we created a system that is completely worn by the user and is not physically connected to anything else. The platform uses an internal tracking algorithm, and hence is not dependent on any external localization system. Project ongoing. Quic Energy Quic Energy focuses on trying to model how heat and other environmental variables propagate through an urban environment. We are working on utilizing massively parallel systems to generate large scale simulations in an efficient manner. Project ongoing.
