Master Foilset for Rome Laboratory-NPAC-Vanguard Collaborative and Interactive Visualization -- First Project Review

This Presentation summarizes the current status of the Rome Laboratory funded Collaborative Interaction and Visualization Project performed by NPAC and Vanguard

This uses 5 component technologies (VR, Network Support, Compression, Video Conferencing, GIS, Multimedia Databases) with Web based Integration

These are used with SGI based large screen stereo displays in 4 applications (Electromagnetic and Weather Simulation, Command and Control, Medical Information Systems and Telemedicine)

This is second presentation of project which statrted in September 1995.
