Abstract

We present Application Redirection, a novel architecture that lets unmodified Windows applications be hosted in a 3D virtual environment. The result is a platform for experimentation in 3D Information Visualization in which the user retains all familiar productivity tools This paper describes the implementation of Application Redirection, using the Task Gallery to illustrate how it is used
