These snapshots were taken in the course of test sessions at
Fraunhofer-IAO (Institut Arbeitswirtschaft und Organisation). This just gives
you some impressions of the VIRTUAL-CAVE-integration done by Oliver and
Patrick. The 4-wall CAVEEE was choosen as an example of CAVE-technology. IAO
also has a very fine more advanced 6-wall CAVE (HyPI-6), but it is always
fully booked and we wanted a place where we could test undisturbed. Every
single 'incarnation' of the VIRTUAL system has its advantages and
disadvantages, its does and don'ts. As you can see, the big field of view in
the CAVE is one major advantage of the CAVE version. Simulator sickness
symptoms are also very rare in this environment.
