title short description

VIEW-BW - Visualisierung der Energiewende in Baden-Württemberg

PolyVR is a virtual reality 3D engine with main focus is the scalability of hardware setups and scene authoring and management.

For the project "DriveSim", IMI team develops a novel intelligent driving simulator that is tailored to the needs of the Chinese driving school students using technology like virtual reality and artificial intelliegence to create experience closest to reality.
