Starry Night
The Starry Night software allows us to display a realistic night sky from any location on Earth or any position in the solar system. We have the ability to display any date and time for thousands of years in the past or future. Starry Night provides an almost unequaled window to the observable universe.
The Layer Earth (TLE)
The Layered Earth is a detailed, comprehensive full dome visualization suite for earth science simulation. The Layered Earth’s three-dimensional world envisions our Earth as a whole system. Explore tectonic plate boundaries, mountain ranges, volcanoes, earthquakes, mineral resources, biomes and much, much more.
Zygote Body
Zygote Body is a powerful and intuitive 3D interactive simulation of the human body. The body is treated as an inter-related system of systems, each part of which can be individually selected, highlighted, hidden, made transparent, or annotated. Zygote Body includes high resolution tissue textures and 100s of individually identified body parts for precise, realistic visualization.
