Just returned from last weekend's MakerFaire in Hannover, where our team presented the latest developments of the Rechenkraft.net HoloDeck project at booth #156 in the Eilenriedehalle: An OpenSource molecular AugmentedReality environment based on the TiltFive board gaming hardware to visualize biomolecules (or any other #3D object available in .glTF file format) for educational or research purposes.

Importantly, this system allows us to visualize work unit files of several chemistry, life science and biomedical distributed computing projects as for example Rosetta@home, SiDock@home, and many more.
Our project was one of only seven projects featured on the MakerFaire's special announcement webpage and, as a consequence, a lot of people came visiting out booth.

We posted a few brief reports and several images from the HoloDeck booth on LinkedIn, Bluesky and Mastodon for you to get an impression on what was going on.

Thanks to the entire team for helping to put this into practice and also to the many RNA World and Rechenkraft.net supporters and to the Einstein@home team who celebrated their 20th anniversary at the MakerFaire booth #157 right next to ours.
It should also be noted that the Justus Liebig University in Giessen currently funds the development of a course which utilizes HoloDeck for teaching and research purposes.

Michael.
