A Hybrid Immersive/Non-Immersive Virtual Environment Workstation

Abstract

In the design considerations of the Immersive portion of this system, it is important to keep the expected setting in mind. The expected setting is on board a ship or other Naval vessel. In such a situation, it is expected that the deck may well be rolling back and forth to some degree. Floor space is also a limited resource and the physical footprint of the system needs to be relatively small. In addition, the systems must integrate with other equipment which is already there. Thus, systems which require a stable frame of reference, demand a large area, or a specialized room are less preferred.
