    Digital Geometry: From Raw Points to Smooth Models

    Vis Lab 2203 Beckman

    Event details

    In this workshop, Juniper Cournoyer from the Vis Lab will walk through a full geometry processing pipeline, from raw point clouds to models ready for simulation and design. We’ll cover how to build triangular meshes from unstructured data, turn them into tetrahedral meshes for finite element analysis (FEM). We’ll highlight practical methods, implementation tips, and some of the common challenges that come up when bridging scanning, simulation, and CAD workflows.

    Lab Renovation Celebration Breakfast

    Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology

    Event details

    Beckman's facilities and operations and information technology teams, with the support of many others, have recently completed the renovation of 14 labs, three non-lab spaces, several roof repairs and upgraded the building’s network and card access systems. This work has also included the renovation of the Illinois Polymer Maker Lab, which will soon become a new Beckman core facility.

    These projects totaled $14.8 million in improvement for Beckman. We want to celebrate these accomplishments with you!

    Please join us for brief remarks, a breakfast buffet and tours of many spaces. This event will offer a sprinkling of science, but is especially a celebration of everyone who helped make the renovations possible.

    Remarks will begin at 9:20 a.m. in the Beckman garden, weather permitting.

    PIs of renovated labs include:

    Metered parking is available in the parking deck just east of the Beckman Institute.

    Add this event to your calendar.
