I placed first in the RENCI Visualization Challenge held at East Carolina University on March, 29, 2011. Each participant was challenged to make the best use of the Vis-wall during a ten minute presentation to an audience of faculty and students. The Vis-wall provides a unique environment for displaying content and consists of a rear projected display at the resolution of 4200 x 1400. My presentation introduced terrestrial laser scanning to the audience and provided them with a visualization of the Brewster building.
I chose the Brewster building since the contest was being held within the building. This allowed the audience a better conceptual environment from which to understand terrestrial laser scanning technology, whereas if I had chosen any other laser scanned dataset, the audience may not have completely comprehended the abilities and methods of laser scanning. As part of the presentation I made an animation fly-through of the Brewster building model and point cloud data at a widescreen resolution appropriate to the resolution and aspect ratio of the Vis-wall. I have uploaded the video below, however in a resolution and proportion which is easier to view at standard aspect ratios found on most PC's and laptops.
