VIRTUE

VIRTUE: Interactive VR Toolkit for Exploring the EIC

VIRTUE is a standalone VR and desktop application for visualizing particle physics events at the Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) at Brookhaven National Lab. Users can explore the ePIC detector model, witness simulated electron-proton collisions, and even customize detector geometries and animations.

Key Features:

🔹 ePIC Detector Exploration – Investigate engineering and X-ray versions of the detector.
🔹 Simulated Collisions – Visualize electron-proton interactions planned for the EIC.
🔹 Customizable Scenarios – Modify geometries and animate data using JSON & FBX files.
🔹 Immersive Animation – Navigate freely or set up smooth, looped animations for presentations.
🔹 Education & Outreach – Engage students and enthusiasts in collider physics through VR.

Perfect for education, research, and outreach, VIRTUE offers a dynamic, hands-on experience to explore and understand high-energy physics like never before!
