At IU, what software does the AVL support?
Identifying, exploring, and providing access to the latest and most advanced visualization software is a key goal of the Advanced Visualization Lab (AVL) at Indiana University. AVL staff investigate a wide range of frameworks, APIs, and software tools that may prove useful for the visualization needs of the university community. While open-source or free tools are generally preferable, some situations require proprietary tools.
The AVL hosts its own license server, and can provide a limited number of licenses for key visualization software packages, including (but not limited to) VirTools, CAVELib, Maya, 3D Studio Max, and Rapidform. Open-source, free, and/or locally developed codes include (but are not limited to) VTK, ParaView, X3D, 3DIVE, PathView, XMView, Effect, and OpenGL.
The AVL's list of recommended software is vast and ever-changing. To ensure you are using the most appropriate software for your needs, request a consultation with an AVL team member.
