Encloded Five-Wall Immersive Cabin
International Symposium on Visual Computing (ISVC2008)
Feng Qiu, Bin Zhang, Lance Cong, Arie Kaufman, Klaus Muller and Xianfeng Gu
We present a novel 3D immersive environment, called the Immersive
Cabin (IC). The IC is fully enclosed with an automatic door on the rear projection
screen, and thus very different from existing CAVE environments. Our custombuilt
system, including the construction of the projection screens and stereo projectors
as well as the calibration procedure are explained in details. The projectors
are driven by our Visual Computing cluster for computation and rendering. Three
applications have been developed on the IC, including 3D virtual colonoscopy,
dispersion simulation for urban security, and 3D imagery and artistic creations. A
unified rendering pipeline for the IC based on scene graph is under development.
