Virtual Reality Moon Phase Pictures These "Virtual Reality Moon Phases" were created by R. Schmidt from ray-traced images of the Moon. A Clementine spacecraft mosaic of the lunar surface was mapped onto a sphere, and scenes were rendered as a virtual Sun "orbited" the Moon. The depiction of lunar surface features suffers geometric distortion but the terminator is correct with respect to the spherical Moon. Current Phase of the Moon: Updates every 4 hours): You can view the phase of the Moon for any date and time [1800-2199 A.D].

4. Virtual Reality Polyhedra Encyclopedia of Polyhedra with virtual reality (VRML) models. Includes a glossary, information on Category Science Math Geometry Polyhedra and Polytopes...... Introduction. Welcome to this collection of thousands of virtual realitypolyhedra for you to explore. About virtual reality Models. http://www.georgehart.com/virtual-polyhedra/vp.html

Virtual Polyhedra The Encyclopedia of Polyhedra By George W. Hart Space is not a passive vacuum, but has properties that impose powerful constraints on any structure that inhabits it. -Arthur Loeb Introduction Welcome to this collection of thousands of virtual reality polyhedra for you to explore. I hope you enjoy playing with them as much as I enjoyed making them. There are hundreds here which have never been illustrated in any previous publication. Polyhedra have an enormous aesthetic appeal and the subject is fun and easy to learn on one's own. One can appreciate the beauty of this image without knowing exactly what its name means - the compound of the snub disicosidodecahedron and its dual hexagonal hexecontahedron - but the more you know about polyhedra, the more beauty you will see. This site is a free self-contained easy-to-explore tutorial, reference work, and object library for people interested in polyhedra. You may choose to simply view the virtual objects for their timeless, serene aesthetics, or to read the related mathematical background material at various levels of depth. Of course, as an academic type, I feel obliged to include a few exercises. And as it says in the textbooks, you'll learn a lot more if you work on the exercises yourself before looking at the solutions. I believe the best way to learn about polyhedra is to make your own paper models or other models . The second best is to play with a set someone else has made. You can do that here because you can look at, move, and spin these models which I have made for you. And in one respect, virtual models have an advantage: you can travel inside them to gain a perspective not possible in paper models. After exploring my virtual models, I hope you choose to make some of your own paper models.

What Is Virtual Reality (alt definition) What Is Virtual Reality (comprehensive analysis) "VR is an interface that immerses participants in a 3-dimensional real-time synthetic environment generated by one (or several) computer(s). Input to the system can be done simultaneously with body movement tracking and verbal commands, and devices such as "wands", "data gloves", etc. The result is simultaneous stimulation of participants' senses (mainly vision and hearing, and occasionally touch) that gives a vivid impression of being immersed in a synthetic environment with which one intereacts.

The Geometry Machine This machine generates 3D virtual reality geometrical images of vectors, lines and planes to aid students in understanding the geometrical interpretation of Linear Algebra. To get the most from this machine, use it to view a geometrical problem that you have already solved, eg finding the intersection point of three planes. If you dont know anything about vector equations of lines or planes, you will not be able to use the machine but you can see some samples generated by the it. samples before activating the machine. Programming the Machine Select the number of each of the following objects that you want displayed and then press the button to switch on the machine. When it is switched on the machine will ask you for the vector equations of each one. How many planes do you want to see? How many lines do you want to see? How many vectors do you want to see? How many points do you want to see? Back to Mike's page listing

18. Journal The VRS Journal The virtual reality Society Web siteis an essentialresource for any with an interest in virtual reality. This http://www.vrs.org.uk/public/journal.html

This journal is an official publication of the Virtual Reality Society, and its aim is to disseminate research and provoke discussion in the area of Virtual Reality. The multidisciplinary nature of the field means that submission will be welcomed on a wide range of topics including, but not limited to, the following: Virtual Reality technology and software systems Human factors Virtual Reality applications Assessment of Virtual Reality systems Philosophical and ethical issues Advances relevant to Virtual Reality Since readers may be unfamiliar with the technical detail of the specific topic being discussed, emphasis will be placed on clear, well-written, and accessible articles that will appeal to a multidisciplinary audience. To complement the academic papers, the journal will also accept shorter reports and communications; this will provide a forum for research that is at an early stage. Product reviews will also be considered, however, they should be of interest to those practically involved in Virtual Reality research and development.
