Their research into Immersive Analytics, undertaken in collaboration with the University of Chester, are far-reaching.

The system created by Dr Panos Ritsos and Dr Peter Butcher of 麻豆网鈥檚 School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering can be used to create computer-generated and data-driven informational layers, which can be seen on top of our physical world, through a smartphone, or a see-through head-mounted display. For example, users can see the energy profile of a property they are about to rent, or the crime data on that street - as computer graphics displayed on top of the house, or the street.

 Dr Panos Ritsos said, "It鈥檚 about creating layers of data-driven information, which can be superimposed on our physical world. It can be any kind of data related to a particular space which can then be displayed on the screen and it can be accessed when you鈥檙e actually there or remotely.

 "We鈥檙e creating a tool where people can display information in virtual reality when they鈥檙e not actually there, or in augmented reality when they are but want the user鈥檚 experience to be enhanced by computer-generated information."
