This year’s Long Night of Science in Dresden was warm and fruitful, and our Interactive Media Lab once again participated with a wide range of interactive exhibits hosted in the APB building.

The evening began with a special tour, where mayor Jan Pratzka and institute directors from various universities and colleges in Dresden could explore three selected demos with a medical and biological focus: BacteriaZoom, an augmented reality application for the Bacteriopolis project (our ongoing collaboration with the Chair of General Microbiology through the DFG-funded Bakteriopolis project (SPP 2389)), allowing exploration of a bacteria model in 3D, a project for medical point cloud registration using mid-air gestures on a stereoscopic display, and Endomersion, our system for AR-assisted remote guidance in minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Following the exclusive tour, these exhibits were moved into our lab rooms and opened to the general public.

In our Mixed Reality and Data Visualization” room, visitors could explore:  PEARL, an augmented-reality application for human movement analysis, Evonne and PMC-VIS, two projects focused on the visualization of computational models, and our research on multiple coordinated views for effective information visualization on large displays.
