Virtual reality (VR) has developed into a promising technology that opens up new ways for people to interact with digital content. By putting on VR glasses, users are immersed in a virtual 3D environment that they can explore through natural body movements and direct interaction with their hands. In addition to games, VR is already being used successfully in a variety of ways, for example to train new skills, support medical procedures, preserve cultural heritage and evaluate architectural designs, to name just a few of the different areas of application.
However, most virtual environments in the various application areas are larger than the physical area in which a user can move around with VR glasses. Therefore, navigation techniques that move the user’s position through the environment purely virtually are crucial to enable unrestricted exploration.

In our last article Eight NFDI consortia with RWTH participation are funded by the DFG! we reported on the funding decision of the Joint Science Conference (GWK) within the framework of the National Research Data Infrastructure (NFDI). As one of ten consortia – eight of them with RWTH participation – NFDI-MatWerk now receives a five-year grant for the infrastructure development of a common materials research data space. In our new blog post, we introduce you to the initiative. Read the rest of this entry »
