VR extension of particle-based remote visualization application

Kawamura, Takuma ; Sakamoto, Naohisa*

Visualization of the large CFD dataset in remote locations by VR, especially using volume rendering, is one of the issues in the visualization field. The visualization library KVS supports PBVR, a unique particle-based visualization method suitable for large-scale data, and we have developed an extension of KVS for VR. In this paper, we present a design for VR extension of CS-PBVR, a remote visualization application based on KVS. The developed CS-PBVR for VR is then applied to test data and shown to be capable of VR visualization at interactive frame rates.
