Website Features Students’ Work in VEMI Lab
The website Telepresenceoptions.com, a magazine that covers telepresence and visual collaboration technologies, featured UMaine students working in the Virtual Environment and Multimodal Integration (VEMI) Lab in Boardman Hall to write code for experimental design and development of virtual reality or augmented reality environments to support lab research. Shreyan Jain, a graduate student working on the project, said the students are trying to find the best mode to give spatial information to people using audio. Richard Corey, the VEMI Lab manager, told the website the graphics of the virtual reality are about as good as those on an Xbox.
