3D Visualization Center

Since being established in 2014, the 3D Visualization Center has enabled UW to develop a community of innovative visualization users seeking to enhance their teaching, research, and entrepreneurial activity. We provide support on collaborative multidisciplinary grants and external service-oriented contracts. We also engage with the community to nurture update of digital technologies.

Housed in the Energy Innovation Center (EIC), we strive to expand both interest in and access to virtual reality (VR) and other emerging computer technologies, at UW and throughout the state. We provide hands-on digital workshops, short courses, and facility tours to service the academic, educational, and business communities. We offer immersive 3D experiences, data-capture technology, and content-creation services to help analyze, interpret, and share a wide variety of data.
