IEEE Virtual Reality Conference 2003 (VR 2003) Virtual-SAP: An Immersive Tool for Visualizing the Response of Building Structures to Environmental Conditions Los Angeles, CA March 22-March 26 ISBN: 0-7695-1882-6
Immersive virtual environments (VEs) offer interactive, real-time visualization capabilities for engineers, architects, and scientists. This paper presents Virtual-SAP, an immersive VE application allowing users to assess building structures and their response to various environmental conditions through an interactive design-build- test-redesign cycle. Virtual-SAP has three distinct user interfaces that support its use with a high-end, multi-tracker VE system, with a low-cost portable VE system, or on the desktop. Two of these interfaces have been proven highly usable in user testing, and the third will be tested soon. Virtual-SAP is being used for both research and education.
