Visualization
Lab
This lab is working to produce three-dimentional virtual
worlds for humans to interact with.
When they are properly equipped in this lab, students can
safely jump from great heights and even walk on water. This
lab is the place to experience one of the hottest and most
useful new fields - 3D visualization and construction.
They have everything from 3D goggles to a printer which
constructs objects layer by layer as drawn by a computer.
This is one of the only places where students can climb
up three flights of stairs and then jump off the ledge without
getting hurt.
