Welcome to the Advanced Immersive Learning Environment repository

Introduction

This repository contains basic instructions for developing workflows to create, process, and run content in the 3D Stereoscopic Igloo installation of the Advanced Immersive Learning Environment.

The Advanced Immersive Learning Environment is a stereoscopic visualisation facility located in room 101 of the Advanced Engineering Centre, which contains the following equipment:

• 8 x 5000 lumen HD/WUXGA UST projectors with 3D (projected on four walls).
• 2 x 5100 lumens HD/WUXGA projectors with 3D (projected on the floor).
• IMP III Media player
• 5.1 Surround Sound system
• Server cabinet with network switch plus peripherals
• 10 x 3D glasses and 3D emitter
• Igloo Elite Software Package
• 8 PrimeX 13 OptiTrack Camera Systems
• OptiTrack MOTIVE Body Software
• T3D Mocap Suit - Summer- Men - MEDIUM - Black/Blue
• OptiTrack Marker Set 14mm w/ X-Base
