Abstract

In this paper we present work undertaken by the Advanced Interfaces Group at the University of Manchester into the use of virtual reality (VR) for large-scale industrial applications, the benefits this can bring, and the problems of applying VR to large problems. We show how these problems are being addressed by the MAVERIK system under development within the group. MAVERIK is a VR system which can be tightly integrated into an existing application such that it can exploit that application's data structures, algorithms and semantics.
