Digital Design Studio

In 2009, the DDS moved to a purpose-built facility at Pacific Quay, Glasgow which included a high-definition 13mx8m stereo-projected display lab with full body and object tracking facilities.

The Digital Design Studio (DDS) was a research and postgraduate centre of The Glasgow School of Art, specialising in 3D digital visualisation and interaction technologies.

The School of Simulation and Visualisation (formerly the Digital Design Studio (DDS)) is based on the southside of Glasgow in The Hub, at Pacific Quay by the River Clyde.

The DDS attracted major research funding from industrial partners such as Ford Motor Company USA, QinetiQ, BAE Systems, Thales, Fisher Defence, BBC Scotland and Shed Media, and Historic Scotland.

Historic Scotland and the Glasgow School of Art's Digital Design Studio formed the Centre for Digital Documentation and Visualization to promote the documentation and 3D representation of heritage objects, architecture and environments with laser scanning and 3D visualization software.

As part of an AHRC-funded research project, DDS has created a 3D digital model of the 1938 British Empire Exhibition.

In December 2007, Digital Design Studio at Glasgow School of Art created a 3D graphic reconstruction of the 1938 exhibition, sourced from contemporary photographs, film footage, sketches and drawings from the archive of the Mitchell Library, amongst other sources.

In 2010, in collaboration with NHS Education for Scotland, the DDS set up two networked research centres located in Inverness and Stornoway. Funded by NHS Education for Scotland and in collaboration with the University of Glasgow and the Centre for Health Science, this project is in the process of producing detailed virtual anatomy of the human head and neck for anatomical training, a series of training videos for best practice in decontamination in dentistry.
