Excited to share that our paper “i360°VR: An Interactive 360-Degree Virtual Reality Approach for Engineering Education” was presented and published at the 2025 ASEE Annual Conference. This work introduces a new VR framework (i360°VR) that blends photogrammetry-based authenticity with interactive 360° environments, offering students immersive and engaging learning experiences. We demonstrated it through a coastal erosion case study and also proposed applications for remote labs and physics education.

Congratulations to Daniel Ornelas and Izaiah Mena for presenting our project, “Assessing the Viability of Bolt Loosening Detection via Photogrammetry and Point Cloud Analysis,” at the 2025 Projects Day Event held by the Lyles College of Engineering. This project discovers how remote sensing technologies can help engineers detect loosened and missing bolts for civil infrastructure.
