Project Policies
1 Topics
Topics can be drawn from any of a variety of areas. Some examples
include:
-
3D Spirograph - A 3D electornic version of the classic
toy that demonstrates the generation of curves of various kinds.
-
Cartography Revisited - There are a number of ways
to extend the cartography project, including: the use of
elevation data, the inclusion of animations/visualizations of
additional map projections, the presentation of socio-economic data,
etc...
-
Enhanced Reality - In an enhanced reality system,
one superimposes information on top of the "real world".
One example is the "first down line" that is superimposed
on most television broadcasts of footbal games.
There are a variety of different types of
scientific visualizations/animations that can be superimposed
on top of real-time/recorded video.
-
Foucault's Pendulum - An extension of the pendulum
project that involves a pendulum swinging above the surface of
the Earth (which is rotating on its axis).
-
Microeconomic Equilibrium - Models of supply-demand
equilibrium in a single market and in two spatially separated
markets. This is an extension of the classic "cobweb" dynamics.
-
Visualization Contest - Visualization/animation of
data sets used in past IEEE Visualization Contests (e.g.,
2004,
2005)
2 Proposal Approval
You must get your project approved in advance.
You must submit a brief (i.e., approximately one page), typed proposal
that includes the system requirements for the application and a list of
team members.
3 Collaboration
You may work on the project in groups (of up to 3
people).
4 Materials
All code, pictures and sounds must be original (i.e.,
do not plagiarize and do not infringe on any copyrights). You may
use code developed/used for lectures or assignments.
