225.01 3D Has a Role in Ballet

Montréal, Canada based ballet troupe La La La Human Steps used Kaydara ONLINE real-time 3D production system to animate 3D dancers in Amelia, its latest contemporary ballet production. Kaydara worked in collaboration with La La La Human Steps artistic director and choreographer Édouard Lock to integrate 3D ballet dancers, movement, music, lighting and graphics into an innovative visual backdrop that is used throughout "Amelia." Amelia begins with a 3D ballerina rendered live in Kaydara ONLINE and projected onto a 14-foot screen suspended above the stage. The audience's attention is drawn to the ballerina suspended against a black background; 3D camera work and lighting done on the scene alternate light and shadow across her face as she begins to dance. The actual ballerina (on whom the model was based) then moves on stage, and the live part of the show begins. At several points throughout the production, the screen re-appears, with one of five different ballerina models dancing and floating in the background.

InSpeck, a scanning technology company located in Montréal, created the ballerina models by digitizing their bodies with one of its 3D full body systems. The heads and hands of all five ballerinas were captured with InSpeck's high-resolution head and hand systems. InSpeck then used EM, its 3D editing and modeling software, to put the pieces together to create five high-resolution 3D ballerina models. Approximately ten minutes of animation for the piece was captured directly from the actual ballerinas using a Vicon motion capture system and Immersion Systems gloves. This data was assembled into Kaydara ONLINE, which includes a suite of interactive animation and rendering tools that enabled the show technical directors to control both animation and playback in real-time. Realities, 3D animators from Montréal, also collaborated on the creative process for the virtual ballerinas.

225.02 Dancing Beyond Boundaries in Florida

To celebrate its 150th anniversary, The University of Florida have commissioned Trimension, the Visualization team at SEOS, to design and build a 50-seat Research, Education and Visualization Environment (REVE) in the historic Norman Gym building of the Gainesville campus. The immersive classroom/theater, which boasts a 51ft screen and 18ft ceilings, will initially be used to display an original visualization of the 150 year evolution of the University, created by upper-division students in the Digital Arts and Sciences (DAS) program. Subsequent usage of the REVE will include rich-media teaching, research and distributed collaboration over the high-speed Internet2 network. SEOS has now been commissioned to supply a combination of single chip and 3 chip DLP projectors providing a fully immersive image over the entire screen. A 3 pipe SGI Onyx 2 and multiple additional image sources will power the system. The system also includes a 5:1 audio system, full media switching through an advanced combination of matrix switch and control system capabilities and a ScorpionRT system.

The REVE will also be used to show 'Dancing Beyond Boundaries' (DBB), a live collaboration between artists, engineers, computer scientists and video producers from Universities in Brazil, Minnesota, Denver and Florida. DBB, an international project spearheaded by the University's Digital Worlds Institute, won the award for "Most Courageous and Creative" use of the high-speed network at the global SuperComputing conference in 2001.

225.03 Pre-Release Screening of Immersive 3D Adventure Film

StereoGraphics and Christie Digital Systems teamed-up for an exclusive pre-release screening of the new immersive 3D adventure, Ghosts of the Abyss. StereoGraphics worked with Academy Award winning director and master storyteller James Cameron and Walt Disney pictures to arrange the screening. The movie, scheduled for release on April 11th, 2003, journeys back to the site of James Cameron's greatest inspiration -- the legendary wreck of the Titanic. The companies are using the Christie 3D Cinema Server to show excerpts from Ghosts of the Abyss. The Server is comprises a Sun Microsystems workstation and graphical user interface developed by StereoGraphics. It is claimed to be the world's first stereoscopic server designed for 3D content display.

It is aimed at 3D entertainment owners and operators because of ease of operation and little maintenance. The 3D Cinema Server and a Mirage projector can show 3D content with polarizing glasses using StereoGraphics Projection ZScreen for large audiences. The image quality of this approach matches that of the current system used in theme parks all over the world. StereoGraphics' CrystalEyes can also be used in conjunction with the StereoGraphics theater emitter for smaller audiences.

225.07 Developing Healthcare Equipment in Hong Kong

Hong Kong's largest school of nursing is using 3D CAD and COSMOSFloWorks fluid analysis applications to develop equipment for testing blood sugar levels over a Telehealth System that links remote areas with the school's satellite health station. Students and researchers at the School of Nursing use the software to design and test a blood glucose meter that sends information from remote sites to the university via telephone lines or the Internet. The meter, which was developed as part of a graduate research project, will be one of the diagnostic tools in the Telehealth System developed by the School of Nursing and its parent institution, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Designers model the blood meter's enclosure then simulate the flow of blood through the enclosure with COSMOSFloWorks - enabling the School to test and refine several different designs before committing to expensive physical prototyping, keeping costs down and speeding the design process. SolidWorks reseller Intelligent CAD/CAM Technology Limited in Hong Kong worked with the School to deploy SolidWorks and COSMOSFloWorks.

225.12 Renault: Virtual Prototyping Engine Acoustics

Renault is investing in a multiple installation of LMS Virtual.Lab virtual prototyping software for engine acoustics to support their powertrain and vehicle engineering activities. Renault is implementing LMS acoustic simulation technologies in their mainstream development process to increase the efficiency of acoustic modeling and computation procedures and reduce the time and cost of their design processes. Creating an acoustic mesh starting from a structural model used to be a lengthy, manual process. LMS Virtual.Lab applies a new meshing method. It "wraps" a structural FE model and reduces the amount of detail to the level needed for the acoustic simulation. The smaller size of the model means that acoustic calculations are faster than before, and that more designs can be evaluated.
