DotProduct and WorldViz

Meet yourself in VR! DotProduct & WorldViz join forces for this interactive presentation and demonstration on the impressive workflow from handheld 3D scanning straight into fully-immersive walking virtual reality.

DotProduct (http://www.dotproduct3d.com/) develops high performance, easy-to-use solutions for capturing 3D data. Their handheld 3D scanners are designed for mobile professionals who need quality spatial data, instantly. WorldViz (http://www.worldviz.com/) provides innovative VR solutions to professionals, including enterprise class software, complete VR systems, custom solution design, application development, and more.

Allow yourself to be rapidly scanned by the DotProduct DPI-8 Kit, and moments later become immersed in the WorldViz walking VR system to meet yourself in true-to-size, full color 3D! Scanning and walking VR demos will both be available throughout the night.

NVIDIA POWERS VIRTUAL REALITY, Delivering Richer, More Immersive VR

Virtual Reality (VR) is set to change the way we enjoy entertainment, interact with friends, and get our jobs done. As the leader in visual computing, NVIDIA (http://www.nvidia.com)is at the forefront of this exciting new computing platform. From gaming to product design to cinematic experiences and beyond, NVIDIA delivers groundbreaking solutions for VR—including industry-leading GPUs, drivers, and SDKs—to meet the needs of professionals, gamers, and developers.
At this meetup we will discuss VRWorks™, a comprehensive suite of APIs, libraries, and engines that enable application and headset developers to create amazing virtual reality experiences.
VRWorks enables a new level of presence by bringing physically realistic visuals, sound, touch interactions, and simulated environments to virtual reality. NVIDIA will demonstrate Iray VR. Iray VR capabilities allow us to create environments that let users strap on a headset and peer around photorealistic virtual environments.
