Interactive 3D animations

We present here a set of interactive three-dimensional animations developed either in Flash (Adobe) or using the new technology SPOK (IPTER).

The Flash animations require that you have a recent Flash Player installed in your Browser. Once launched you can select various options.

The SPOK animations - "3D that can be seized" - require that you have installed the plugin VirtualGRIP (Windows, Linux and Mac OS X, (iOS for iPad - contact us)). Once launched you can rotate the view in any direction, zoom in and out and perform other interactive actions that depend on each animation.


Small-Angle Scattering instrument - D11


Three Axis spectrometer - ThALES


Gravitational neutron spectrometer - GRANIT


Time-of-Flight spectrometer - IN5
