...exploring collaborative virtual spaces to
visualize complex data and solve hard problems
Immersive Intelligence is a collaborative data-driven decision process for understanding complex systems using immersive spaces. Immersive spaces are virtual environments whose objects are created from and sync with a rich dynamic database, allowing persons to experience immersion within a data world ranging from the natural and familiar to the abstract and unusual.
Imagine a canvas consisting of kilometers of three-dimensional space, containing thousand to millions of data objects, supporting tens to thousands of persons, scaling from very small (nanometers) to very large (light-years), observing the very quick (nanoseconds) to very slow (centuries), from the very infrequent (Black-Swan events) to the very frequent (heartbeats). This is not possible in the physical world, but it is becoming possible with virtual world technology.
