YobiLens: the awarded concept
In a nutshell
YobiLens is an interactive 3D environment to change and
enhance the way Scientific Data are displayed and
analyzed. With Python embedded, it is an interactive 3D
environment to change and enhance the way scientific Big
Data are displayed and therefore analyzed. It is based on
Unreal Engine 4 (© 2004-2020, Epic Games, Inc.). Data
Points visualization and treatment comes mainly
from
PointCloudPlugin. YobiLens also embeds Python3
through UnrealEnginePython
Plugin, providing all the Scientific Python power in
analyzing and handle data.
In 2020, YobiLens Project has been funded by the Epic MegaGrant Award.
What YobiLens does
Scientific Visualization
The development of computer graphics technology has significantly improved how computers support scientists for data analysis. This explains in part why SciVis or Scientific Visualization has become an important field of research.
Information Visualization
InfoVis is an emerging field of study relative to the human-data interaction. The main goal is to exploit the very high bandwidth of the human brain, giving a representation of data that produces a correct interpretation and visualization by the user.
