Inc. can anyone point me to literature on VR toolkits? what functionality should be expected? what decisions need to be considered regarding data structures? etc... i'm interested in working on some ideas with a low-level framework but i'm also not sure where to begin. since a framework requires careful consideration and design choices early on in the process, i'd like to benefit from the wisdom of other where possible. i realize that there are commercially avaliable products (which lie outside my price range). also, i would like the experience of programming this myself. thx Andy Kriger akriger@adobe.com ----------------- These are my words and opinions not John Warnock's, Chuck Geshke's or Adobe's --------------------------------------- From: pipitone@nicmad.nicolet.com (Jeff Pipitone) Subject: INFO: I am interested in VR Date: Fri, 27 Oct 1995 19:30:41 GMT I am interested in learning more about Virtual Reality and the types of applications that it is being used for. I am a beginner with a computer background in a quest of good books, newsletters, newsgroups and web pages. I am interested in design and use of these types of systems in a learning environment. If anyone out there knows of any VR installations in the Madison/Milwaukee Wisconsin area, drop me a line! Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I have to research the VR concept and give a general impression to important group of people in a couple of months. Can any one send me info about VR ? All info, technical or otherwise, is welcome at this time ! Please send it to : Roy Rouwkema (arroelec@cybercomm.nl) Thanks to all who are willing to help ! --------------------------------------- From: insb4ndg@river.tay.ac.uk (Hypnotised and Naked) Subject: SPECS: Help with a Powerglove project Organization: University of Abertay Dundee I am a fourth-year computing student and for my project I have to investigate machine independant code. The project is based around the Matel Powerglove and I have Pascal code which runs on a 286 and not much else. One of the goals of the project is to outline what causes interface/software to be machine independant then apply these rules to the powerglove example Any details on either the Powerglove or the machine independancy/dependacy would be greatly appreciated ] Neil Galloway --------------------------------------- From: afalgout@whale.st.usm.edu (Andrew Wilson Falgout) Newsgroups: sci.virtual-worlds Subject: INFO: Garage VR WWW Addies Date: 30 Oct 1995 19:29:36 GMT Organization: University of Southern Mississippi Message-ID: <473930$1c0@thorn.cc.usm.edu> I've been trudging along through the net looking for good garage VR addys.
