"Center for the Representation of Multi-Dimensional Information" (CROMDI)

The Center for the Representation of Multi-Dimensional Information (CROMDI) at the University of Utah has developed a new 3D audio-visualization technology (IntuInfo) that facilitates the rapid and accurate analysis of large quantities of complex and quickly changing data. This patent pending technology has been applied in medicine, finance, and entertainment, and may also be successfully utilized in other applications where decision making depends on monitoring or analysing large quantities of information (process control, vehicle operation and traffic control, corporate management, quality assurance, network monitoring). The technology enables significantly faster, more accurate and less cognitive demanding recognition of events than is possible using existing technologies.

IntuInfo makes use of the human intuition of 3D geometry and visual-auditory clues that everybody understands as a result of dealing with the real world. The technology maps data variables into the properties of 3D objects that are appropriately designed to map the decision making process. As data changes in time so do the objects: the audio-visualization permits its users to intuitively detect any change in the geometry, position, size, color, sounds, etc. of the object(s) and determine its implication.

CROMDI is an interdisciplinary team dedicated to the innovative representation of information, comprised of experts of Arts, Architecture, Communication, Computer Science, Mathematics, Music, Psychology, Medicine, Anesthesia, BioEngineering, Finance. These diverse experts participate with their own unique perspectives and provide solutions to complex information design needs through a unique methodology and iterative process that has been refined over the years.

CROMDI is seeking research sponsorships and commercial partnerships
