Welcome to the Virtual Imaging Technology Lab in the College of Fine Arts

The Virtual Imaging Technology Lab is a newly renovated 3,600 sq foot space in the College of Fine Arts which houses an incredible array of virtual and immersive imaging and entertainment technologies. Highlighted by our 28’x10’ LED Wall, the facility is outfitted with high-end graphics computers, professional video cameras, lighting and sound equipment, optical and suit-based motion capture systems, streaming technology and virtual reality headsets. Combining this variety and quality of technology under one roof allows designers, researchers, artists and creators to explore their unique vision. In addition to the main studio space, VITAL is also home to a dedicated streaming room, office space, and a small computer lab.
