About

This website contains three knowledgebases about current research topics at V2_Lab, which can be browsed as an alphabetical list* or graphical representation**:

- Wearable Technology: List | Graph

- Augmented Reality: List | Graph

- Ecology: List | Graph

*The Wearable knowledgebase was created by Silvia Piantini and is maintained by Piem Wirtz.

The Augmented Reality knowledgebase was created by Carolien Teunisse and is maintained by Jan Misker.

The Ecology knowledgebase was created by Carles Tardio Pi and is maintained by Michel van Dartel

If you think crucial information is missing in one of the knowledgebases please contact the maintaining it.

**These interactive graphical representations of the knowledgebases are created by Carles Tardio Pi to provide users with a sense of the thematic relations that exist between the many different entries in the databases. In the graphical representation, every project and every descriptive tag of a project is visualized as a node. When projects share a tag a union edge is created between them. A force-directed algorithm is used to minimize the number of edges that cross and a colour code is used to indicate clusters. The result is an interactive map that allows exploring the different projects and their descriptive tags by moving through a network of nodes. The graphical representations are generated directly from the database so it is always up-to-date with the most recent changes in the databases. The visualizations are created using the gephi toolkit, java netbeans, and raphv-gexf.js
