Imagine a virtual computer simulation that reflects the world around you in real-time?
Images and information about the world is at your finger-tips before you leave home.
Facial recognition might give information about the location of your friends or
maybe you want the latest scoop about the specials at local restaurants,
the real time locations and estimated arrival and departures of commuter trains.
According to the Integrated Media Systems Center (IMSC), there's an app for all that and more.
The IMSC launched in 1996 with funding from the National Science Foundation.
Geo-Immersion is the current virtual reality technology the Center has been creating and implementing at the University of Southern California campus in Los Angeles.
Center Director Cyrus Shahabi envisions technology being used at other college campuses and institutions for applications ranging from social networking to enhancing security.
