Immersive 3D Visualization Lab

The basic device of the Immersive 3D Visualization Lab is the complete (i.e. with four walls, the floor, and the ceiling) cubic BigCAVE (Cave Automatic Virtual Environment).\n\nUsually to navigate in the CAVE one can use a wand (flystick), a special controller held in a hand. However, I3DVL has an additional unique device for unrestricted walk through virtual worlds. It is the transparent spherical walk simulator “insertable” into the CAVE. The spherical walk simulator can also be used with a head mounted display instead of the CAVE.\n\nAdditionally, the I3DVL has the smaller (but enhanced by the body and finger tracking systems) MidiCAVE with three walls and the floor, the MiniCAVE consisting of four stereoscopic monitors, and stand-alone computers for development.
