Here's another ancient video from the vault: Interacting with a 3D protein model in the CAVE, using the VR version of ProtoShop. I recorded this one in early 2006. ProtoShop is a modeling program for proteins, specifically designed to create initial configurations for ab-initio protein structure prediction. It's described in detail in this paper, which won the "Best Application" award at the 2003 IEEE Visualization conference: Kreylos, O., Max, N.L., Hamann, B., Crivelli, S.N. and Bethel, E.W., "Interactive Protein Manipulation," in: Turk, G., van Wijk, J.J., and Moorhead, R.J., eds., "IEEE Visualization 2003," IEEE Computer Society Press, Los Alamitos, CA, pp. 581-588 ProtoShop has been used in several international protein structure prediction competitions, and was crucial in predicting the structures of several large proteins that were too complex for non-interactive prediction.
