As you walk through downtown Chicago, don’t be surprised to advertisements for the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) popping up on city streets. The UIC Electronic Visualization Laboratory (EVL) was contacted earlier this year by the UIC Office of Public and Government Affairs, Marketing and Brand Management department, to provide photos for ads on Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) buses and at O’Hare airport. An ad was recently spotted by a UIC Computer Science student… Students at the Electronic Visualization Laboratory (EVL) at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) explore connectome imagery in EVL’s CAVE2™ hybrid reality environment.
