Exploring EPICentre

Expanding our perception in UNSW’s immersive visualisation environment

Members of the D+I Sydney team recently toured EPICentre, the groundbreaking new multidisciplinary visualisation centre at UNSW.

EPICentre (Expanded Perception & Interaction Centre) is a shared UNSW research centre located at the UNSW Art & Design campus in Sydney. The Centre undertakes visualisation research in the fields of art, design, science, medicine and engineering. The most advanced facility of its kind, EPICentre represents the next generation in medical imaging, engineering, high-performance visualisation, simulations and applied artificial intelligence.

The D+I team explored several of the ultra-high resolution, immersive visualisation environments in the Mixed Reality lab (XR-Lab). XR-Lab allows the development and delivery of collaborative Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality applications. D+I are excited by the opportunities to apply this visualisation technology to the product development process, particularly in the medtech area.
