Abstract Saitama Institute of Technology initiated its intensive efforts in the education of information technology in the last few years. The computational resources are, Origin, ONYX300 with CAVE and PCs placed in the lecture rooms and exercise rooms. These resources are used for the education of UNIX, visualization, CG and computational methods and simulations.
The software of AVS is used as one of the platform of visualization environment. It is actually used widely in CAVE, the stereographic screen, the wide screen with cooperating three projectors and the usual display of PCs and X terminals. Other visualization software is being examined in our CAVE system.
The three dimensional CG tools are also used in the exercises and project studies. Based on the enhancement of CG environment, the first CG competition will be organized in September, gathering the wide interest of the undergraduate students of SIT and middle/high school students.
The contents developed in the fields of scientific visualization and CG can be shared with other universities which have CAVE or similar VR. The cooperative study is expected in these fields with the counterpart universities in Japan and outside of Japan. Some teleconference system is equipped and used for remote education.
