Github Repository - PAr 118 - ReViVD (2018-2019)
Full name: 3D data exploration with Virtual Reality Headset (aircraft trajectories, sports data)
ReViVD's main objective is to develop new 3D data visualization and exploration tools in Virtual Reality. We intend to showcase methods of interacting with data in VR which are simply not possible in other desktop configurations.
Some documentation can be found on our website.

/* District size of the visualization
* Used for collision detection optimization with selectors
* Bigger districts are generally better for big selectors
* Smaller districts are generally better for small selectors and very atom-dense visualizations
* Try to fiddle around with those values if you find selection performance lacking.
* Cubical districts are not mandatory but will go faster, especially on isotropic visualizations;
* However, if a visualization is very atom-dense on only one axis, try reducing the district size on that axis.
