As long as that subject is up... I just recently downloaded a free
demo by a company named "SuperScape Virtual Realities"... 

It was a demo of a small few-building site, with four "vehicles": two cars,
one helicopter, and a walking man.  You could control any of them, and look
from any of their viewpoints, and could *somewhat* interact between objects.
You could also free-form the camera to look around as you wish.

According to the documentation, this company does small 'virtual designs'
of projects and sites for people to walk-thru on their 286 or better;
the demo is an ad for their services somewhat.

Has anybody else seen the work by SuperScape?  Is that style of coding
easy to convert to stereoscopic and tracking/HI equipment, or is this a 
totally different area?  (yes, I'm NOT much of a programmer)
