Algorithms for a multi-projector CAVE system

Abstract

With regards to facilitating development of VR applications, the main pur- pose of ALIVE is to reduce the amount of attention that the application developer has to dedicate to the issues that were described previously. In this project we aim to abstract the user from dealing with: Input devices. Display number and layout. De nition of the virtual cameras. Synchronization issues between cluster nodes. Notably missing from the list are 3D sound rendering and synchroniza- tion for non-deterministic algorithms. These problems are out of the scope of this project and will be addressed in the future. Summarizing the objectives of this project, we list: Provide an abstraction API, that facilitates development and deploy- ment of VR applications. Create a polygon renderer application based on the proposed API.
