In order for the VR CAVE to function optimally, it is necessary to have a network of computers driving the projectors to be perfectly synchronized with each other in order to process the images and obtain a combined visual rendering across all the screens. As well as head and hands, the CAVE offers the possibility of full body tracking, ideal for a full virtual reality experience.
The cave 2 update#
Thus as the user moves around inside the CAVE the 3D images update to give them a new view of the virtual world. The user’s head and hands movements in the CAVE space are tracked in order to synchronize them with the point of view of the 3D immersives images, projected on the screens. Recent installations have also seen the walls replaced by 3D LED screens (CAVE2). SkyReal VR engineer on CAVE systemĭepending on the setup of the CAVE, the projection can also be done from below, from above or by mirror effect to reduce the amount of space needed. Typically these screens use 3D stereoscopic rear projection, to recreate a 3D immersion virtual environment, using multiple projectors of up to 4k resolution to ensure a very high quality image. These walls act as a projection screens onto which the 3D graphics are projected. The VR CAVE, a highly immersive virtual environmentĪ CAVE ( also called Computer Automatic Virtual Environment) is composed of a minimum of 2 walls but can go up to 6 sides of the cube when adding a floor and a ceiling to all 4 walls.
The TORE project led by the UMR SCALab laboratory, under the supervision of the University of Lille and the CNRS, reflects these options, as shown in the video below. The options of a VR CAVE are numerous, such as projectors, tracking, number of screens, size of screens, resolutions and it is highly likely that no two CAVEs are alike.
A VR CAVE ( Cave Automatic Virtual Environment) is a vr space or cube like room, with 3D images projected onto the walls of the room, to create a walk-in immersive 3D environment.
