Adaptive display algorithm for interactive frame rates during visualization of complex virtual environments
We describe an adaptive display algorithm for interactive frame rates during visualization of very complex virtual environments. The algorithm relies upon a hierarchical model rep...

Surround-screen projection-based virtual reality: the design and implementation of the CAVE
Several common systems satisfy some but not all of the VR definition above. Flight simulators provide vehicle tracking, not head tracking, and do not generally operate in binocular...
