CAVE applications in VRML 2.0

This area contains some examples of CAVE VR applications which have been translated into VRML 2.0 scenes. The starting point is a room containing several doors. Each door is a link to a specific CAVE application. There are no links back from the applications to the starting room. These models were originally in VRML 1.0; hence, they have no dynamics or interaction beyond hyper-linking. All of the files are gzip compressed.

These scenes have been tested locally using the 1.0 version of SGI's CosmoPlayer, on an Indigo2 Max Impact. If you find any problems loading them remotely, or with another viewer, please inform me (pape@evl.uic.edu).

Warning: Some of the applications are very large, and probably aren't worth loading on slower machines. See the notes below for information on the size of each scene.
