As opposed to a "powerwall", which typically displays large images, our primary intent is to visualize high-dimensional datasets by allowing the use of different tools, viewpoints, and parameters to display different aspects of a dataset simultaneously and in concert. The hyperwall has been used for a number of applications including Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD), quantum chemistry, astronomy and astrophysics, and atmospheric and oceanic modeling.
