VEMI Lab to host Halloween open house
Editor’s note: Due to the Oct. 31 power outage, this event has been rescheduled for 4:30 to 7 p.m. Nov. 7.
The Virtual Environment and Multimodal Interaction (VEMI) Laboratory at the University of Maine will host a Halloween-themed open house from 4:30 to 7 p.m. Oct. 31.
The lab, located in Carnegie Hall, is part of the spatial informatics program in the School of Computing and Information Science and houses Maine’s only research facility that combines a fully immersive virtual reality installation with augmented reality technologies in an integrated research and development environment.
Students, faculty, staff, friends and family are invited to explore Halloween-related virtual reality demonstrations, as well as new simulations from recent research.
Light refreshments will be available. Costumes are not required, but are encouraged.
