Penn State to visualize cave with VRML/X3D based software
Penn State has developed cave applications, targeting to facilitate the effective use of virtual reality (VR) techniques in design, construction and other disciplines. The aim was to develop immersive environments, where users can study all kinds of designs for different ranges with special visualization techniques.
Penn States cave applications mostly are employed in the AEC industry i.e. architecture, engineering and construction.
Cave applications can also support scientists in the human heart search, enzyme search or exploration of the human DNA, all by a specific 3D stereoscopic representation. In the training and education field cave solutions can combine transfer of knowledge by simulation of learning objects with first practical experiences and thus intensify the learning success.
