Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination @ Qualcomm Institute

Built upon the National Research Platform (NRP) network, UC San Diego’s Clarke Center for Human Imagination and the Qualcomm Institute are developing server-side rendering tools and deployment of an Unreal-based game experience to scale the Metaverse AR/VR hardware needs into a distributed system, enabling a campus-wide XR test bed representing the third generation of big data visualization, realized through persistent, procedural rendered simulations produced from live data at global scale.

Engineers For Exploration @ UC San Diego

A Collaboration between the Engineers for Exploration (E4E) and Triton XR organizations at UCSD, focused on collecting 3D data from Maya structures through the use of technologies such as LiDAR, photogrammetry, and SLAM. The project produces 3D models in the form of point clouds or meshes, which are then used to create a virtual reality experience that allows users to explore the excavations.
