3D-Visualization

• Projector: Two professional projectors, F1+ SXGA+, resolution 1400 * 1050. Up to 4200 lumens. Produced by ProjectionDesign. Ultra Wide Angle lenses 1 : 1.The projectors are mounted in a special Constructed Frame produced by Cyviz for 3D-visualization and equipped with polarization filters. The projector rack is portable. Total weight of the rack with two projectors and synchronization/converter unit is ca 13 Kg. 
• Screens: Two front projection screens. One Da-Lite Cinema Contour, size 3.00 m * 2.25 m http://www.da-lite.com/products/product.php?cID=20&pID=234 and one portable Steward FilmScreen with size 2.13 m * 1.53 m. One portable back projection screen, Stewart Film Screen, size 2.20 m * 1.65 m. http://www.stewartfilmscreen.com/Silver3D.html

Room
The laboratory expands ca. 50 m² andis situated at the 1. floor. Entrance is possible by wheel chair. The height to the ceiling varies between ca 1.5 m to ca 4 m. With respect to full size, human motion capturing, the lab is best suited for movements that can take place within a limited volume.
