About the team

The Immersive and Applied Visualization team is a combination of two units at Linköping University, joining efforts into research and development in a range of technologies to create an immersive and engaging visualization of data.

The Unit for Applied Visualization conducts internal and external production development with the goal of combining research data and visualization technology for improved science communication and use beyond research, with a focus on the public, schools, and business.

The Immersive Visualization Unit researches and develops various techniques to create an immersive and captivating visualization of data using large-scale display systems, such as immersive domes and stereoscopic vision (3D), including technologies such as Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR).

Part of the group is also C-tech, with technical director Erik Sundén, providing technical support and maintenance of the dome and related equipment and systems at Norrköping Visualization Center C.

Our vision is to create systems and software that enable the user to feel immersed and deeply engaged with their content regardless of the type of devices or display system and interaction techniques being used.
