+1. Virtual Reality user interface development (Tom 348 hours, Elaine 87 hours, Eric 696 hours, Conrad 87 hours)
+ a. Provide task specific user interfaces (i.e. GUI panels and/or appropriate icons) for the following areas:
+  i. medical imaging
+  i. cryoEM modeling -- rotamers, structure building and verification, minimization
+ b. Measure and display distance between two specified points in space in VR, both molecular models and medical images.
+ c. Investigate and optionally prototype control of VR sessions by speech recognition, using a controlled vocabulary and grammar.  This will support better accessibility for disabled users, e.g., users with limb differences who would have trouble with some aspects of the VR hand controllers.
+2. Extend medical imaging data visualization and analysis (Tom 348 hours, Elaine 87 hours)
+ a. Improve native .dcm support, e.g., compatibility for segmented dicom files.
+ a. Provide presets for different tissue types in CT scans.
+3. Support for multiuser sessions in a virtual reality environment (Tom 87 hours, Eric 174 hours, Conrad 435 hours)
+ a. The application will allow multiple ChimeraX users to enter a shared session to interact with a 3D representation of the data in virtual reality
+ a. An ideal solution will allow users from both ends (remote, or in the same physical room) to start meetings on demand and to connect without opening firewalls.
+4. Outreach
+ A. Workshops, Training and presentations (Tom 164 hours, Elaine 87 hours)
+  a. If available, the subcontractor shall attend a meeting at NIAID’s Rocky Mountain Labs location in Hamilton, Montana. This is tentatively scheduled for August 5-9, 2019, as part of a NIAID/OCICB site visit to showcase virtual reality technology for scientific data visualization to support NIAID research.
+  b. The subcontractor may propose one or more additional conference events relevant to the work, at which they will showcase the application in an oral presentation and/or hands-on conference exhibit or training. Justification shall be provided for how this will benefit NIAID.
+  c. A virtual help desk for users
+ B. Instructional Material and tools documentation (Elaine 609 hours)
+  a. Detailed instructions for all features shall be provided in a user manual.
+  a. Written user guides and tutorials shall be available as an HTML page and/or a downloadable PDF.
+5. Project planning, administration, and reporting (Tom 87 hours, Scooter 174 hours)
+  a. A project schedule, implementation plan, and documentation plan will be provided.
+  b. Reports will be provided for all subtasks described under each task.
