• Ultra High Definition Video Wall

    One high configuration computer is connected to a number of monitors that display various images and data concurrently.

  • Leading Edge Vizualizations

    The combination of research data, visualization wall and haptic technology will allow researchers and students to move forward to the next level of experimentation process.

  • State of the Art Facilities

    The facilities available at the VizLab offer state of the art visualization technology to aid in teaching and research. Schedule an event at the VizLab and take advantage of the capabilities of our facilities.

  • Haptic Capabilities

    Technology that takes advantage of a user's sense of touch by applying forces, vibrations, or motions to the user. The fairly new technology is gaining widespread acceptance as a key part of virtual reality systems, adding the sense of touch to previously visual-only solutions.

  • High Performance Computing

    A few examples of HPC technologies are the simulation of car crashes for structural design, molecular interaction for new drug design and the airflow over automobiles or airplanes.

Research

The UTSA Advanced Visualization Laboratory will primarily be used by UTSA researchers in science, engineering and statistics who need to translate complex data sets into easily-interpretable graphic representations. Research projects slated for the Vis-Wall include:

  • The development of cancer surgical simulation and real-time monitoring system
  • Visualization of multi-scale modeling for computational biology and biomedicine
  • The design and performance of autonomous underwater vehicles
  • Fatigue and fracture of advanced structural systems
  • Flash flooding research analysis
  • Methods to predict the damage formation and failure of skeletal tissues
