Immersive Data Visualisation in the Reality Emulator (In-Person)

Join us at The Sheds (part of the Bristol Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus) for an introduction to cutting-edge data visualisation using immersive technologies. This interactive session will explore how advanced visualisation methods can transform the way we understand complex datasets. Attendees will have the chance to experience our state-of-the-art Reality Emulator, an unparalleled facility for exploring digital futures, through live demonstrations and a behind-the-scenes tour. Alongside hands-on insights, the event offers plenty of opportunities to connect with colleagues over refreshments and lunch.

Do you have some data you would like to see visualised in the Reality Emulator? For a small number of participants, we may be able to work with you to format your data to visualise during this event. If so, please tick ‘Yes’ to this question when finalising your ticket order. Email [email protected] if you would like to find out more (subject: Data Week – Data Visualisation).
