Brown Cave offers students, researchers a chance to solve tough problems in 3−D - Lev Nelson, Brown Dail Herald
In "The Empire Strikes Back," Luke Skywalker enters a cave to battle an illusory Darth Vader. In a different sort of cave at Brown, researchers and students encounter three−dimensional visualizations that are not figments of the imagination, but data that have been analyzed by computers. Brown's Cave allows researchers from many different fields to come together to approach problems visually that can be difficult to solve otherwise. Biologists, mathematicians, archaeologists, computer scientists, geologists, chemists and engineers have all been linked in Cave−related projects.
