+=== Simulation for Forest Fire Detection ===
+Required Background: General CSE408x prerequisites
+Recommended Background: CSE3431 or CSE4471 or equivalent
+Detection of forest fires is a challenging activity that requires considerable training. The objective of this project is to implement a virtual reality simulation to incorporate key aspects of this task and then to perform an evaluation with a small user study.

+=== Study of self-motion perception in microgravity ===
+Required Background: General CSE408x prerequisites
+Recommended Background: CSE3431 or CSE4471 or equivalent
+This is a computer graphics project to present visual motion stimuli to an observer. The software will experimentally control scene content, collect user responses and control the camera trajectory to simulate the desired self-motion profile.

+=== Stereoscopic cinema calculator ===
+Required Background: General CSE408x prerequisites
+Recommended Background: CSE3431 or CSE4471 or equivalent
+Directors of three-dimensional movies sometimes use 'stereo calculators' to compute the simulated depth of objects in the film show to the viewer in order to maximize the stereoscopic effects and maintain comfortable viewing. However current calculators have limited ability to visualize the results of the calculations. This project will combine stereo calculations with visualization software to assist the director in artistic and technical decisions.
