With light pollution, it is getting more difficult to fully appreciate the night sky, see the constellations, and determine the position of deep sky objects. With this planetarium, you can learn and appreciate the beauty of a dark night sky. Amateur astronomers can prepare their observations by having a real sense of where objects are through virtual reality. The application will be extended with more deep sky images, more deep sky surveys.

    • 41375 stars (apparent magnitude < 8)

    • The planets and the Moon.

    • 88 constellations

    • Deep Sky Object Catalogs: Messier, Caldwell, and Herschel 400

    • Deep Sky Object images from surveys (DSS, Wise).

    • The Equatorial Grid, Azimuthal Grid, Ecliptic Plane, and Galactic Plane.

    • Bortle Scale effect, location and time options

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a type of scan that uses strong magnetic fields and radio waves to produce detailed images of the inside of the body. MRI uses a strong magnetic field and radio waves to create detailed images of the organs and tissues within the body. An MRI scan uses a large magnet, radio waves, and a computer to create a detailed, cross-sectional image of internal organs and structures. This application allows to display different MRI scans and to browse into the different slices through a virtual reality environment.

If you have your own MRI data (images from DICOM files), you can easily import your own files into the application to visualize them in VR.

Great Paintings from Great Museums of the World in Virtual Reality. The application allows to browse across famous paintings in a single room and art galleries. There is no need to teleport or move around, each painting can be displayed in front of the user.

There are more than 1000 paintings, including famous paintings in high resolution from Sandro Botticelli, Hieronymus Bosch, Caravaggio, Georges de la Tour, Jan van Eyck, Johannes Vermeer, Leonardo da Vinci,...

The format for managing the set of paintings is simple (JSON format), allowing the application to be extended with more paintings in the future.

"Painting is just another way of keeping a diary" Pablo Picasso

"I believe that the great painters with their intellect as master have attempted to force this unwilling medium of paint and canvas into a record of their emotions." Edward Hopper

"If you could say it in words, there would be no reason to paint." Edward Hopper

"A painting requires a little mystery, some vagueness, and some fantasy. When you always make your meaning perfectly plain you end up boring people." Edgar Degas

Mathematics puzzle number game for everyone.

Improve your mental computation skills to become better at quick calculations and estimations. Practice mathematics and solve equations in virtual reality in standing or sitting mode.
