Scientific Animation Theater (SAT)

Chair: Joerg Meyer, University of California, Irvine

The Scientific Animation Theater (SAT) is a showcase for scientific animations, video clips, or visualizations of time-varying processes or data.

The video clips shown at IEEE Visualization 2007 are examples of this year's state-of-the-art in scientific visualization, computer graphics, and rendering. The focus of the submitted works was supposed to be less on artistic impression and commercial applications, and more on scientific content, "how-to" illustrations, animated visualizations, and narrated software/application demos.

All submissions were reviewed by the Scientific Animation Theater chair and compiled into a reel shown in a repeating loop during the conference.
