Build Your Own PC-Based Cave With
CaveUT:
Frightfully detailed instructions on how to
construct a PC-based cave for roughly $5000 per screen. The design is
specifically for a two-walled portable immersive panormic display
using CaveUT for software, but the techiques shown readily generalize
to far more complex displays with up to 32 screens. Nor is it limited
to CaveUT--you can use any software which can take advantage of a
network of PC's driving LCD projectors. We call it, the "UT-Cave".
This portable UT-Cave showed at
CHI 2002,
Ultra Unreal,
the HFES 46th meeting,
and
WIHAVE.
