ST Engineering Antycip has delivered a three-sided immersive CAVE at the ICube laboratory, University of Strasbourg, as part of the national EQUIPEX+ CONTINUUM programme — a French initiative focused on collaborative continuity between digital systems and human interaction.
The installation enhances ICube's InVirtuo platform, sitting within the GAIA research cluster (Computer Graphics, Analysis and Artificial Intelligence). Antycip designed and integrated the full system, which includes three projection screen faces, a custom mechanical support structure, BARCO I600 projectors, and a custom floor surface. The system is calibrated for visual and geometric continuity across the environment.
Users can move freely within a real-time rendered 3D space that adapts dynamically to their viewpoint. The CAVE supports the IGG team's work in human-computer interaction, scientific visualisation, and virtual reality, alongside two Master's programmes in image, virtual reality, and computer science.
The facility will also be used for industrial services and collaborative research through the GAIA platform.
"This immersive CAVE provides us with a state-of-the-art platform for both our research and teaching activities. It enables us to explore new forms of collaboration and experimentation by combining different immersive technologies, from the CAVE environment to VR headsets, creating rich and interactive hybrid environments," said Dominique Bechmann, Professor of Computer Science, University of Strasbourg.
