Principles of Occupancy
|
8.31.04 – Both new buildings at UCI and UCSD are making rapid progress toward conclusion, with the UCI building expected to be occupied this fall and the UCSD building the spring of 2005. To facilitate identifying the research groups that will move into the new facilities, the UCI and UCSD divisions have published a joint set of “principles for occupancy” (http://www.calit2.net/building/Principles_of_occupancy.pdf).

UCSD Animated Building Fly-Through 6.14.04
From notated two dimensional plans, Ben Maggos, Matt Hope and Bobby Mazaheri constructed 3D models of the building under the direction of NMA layer leader, Sheldon Brown." The 3D models were then rebuilt and optimized to run in a real-time interactive environment. In addition, the optimized models were textured; the notes accompanying the original drawings were realized as texture maps – carpeting, aluminum panels, colored glass etc.
