  1. FUTURE OF VIRTUAL REALITY

  2. Future of Virtual Reality • Difficult to predict • Short-range predictions of technological progress are much easier than long-range ones • It took a lot of imagination and vision to predict the future • Computer development will affect the future of Virtual Reality

  3. Virtual reality systems may transform the nature of entertainment. • VR has been embraced by game makers as a great new toy and the future of gaming • User will be able to play sports games in which you will have to use your whole body • A virtual world will be design so people can see and communicate with each other • Online Entertainment

  4. VR as a learning medium in the future VR can be applied in : • Distant education such as virtual classroom • Training such as combat warfare, doctors and etc.

  5. Create unique environment for explorations and problem-solving • VR could be used primarily to help architecture students to visualize in 3 dimensions • With VR users can "walk through" a building while it is still being designed.

  6. VR Main Resources

  7. Chosen Websites on VR • The Virtual Reality Society • QuickTime Virtual Reality Suite • VRML Works !!!

  8. Virtual Reality Society • Address : http://www.vrs.org.uk • Three Links: World of VRS, What is VRS and VRS Journal. • World of VRS : Online Database of Virtual Reality Glossary and Online Database of Virtual Reality Companies. • It provides the technical assistance on Virtual Reality and also awareness of the VR contribution on industries.

  9. World of VRS : Gives the historical background and the objective of the society. • Founded in 1994. • Founded to give the meeting place for academics, industrialists, researchers and students to discuss and learn the new technologies on Virtual Reality. • Society’s journals are given four times per year. • Four membership types; Student, Associate, Member, Fellow and Corporate.

  10. The VRS Journals are official publications of the society • Its aim to disseminate research and provokes discussion on the topic. • Journals written from vast collection of genres • Virtual Reality technology and software systems • Human Factors • Virtual Reality Application • Assessment of Virtual Reality System • Philosophical and ethical issues • Advances relevant to Virtual Reality

  11. The Virtual Reality Society is a one-stop knowledge research which provides the journals for reference and discussion. • Promotes the love of Virtual Reality researches and catalyses the keenness of new enthusiasts on the topics.

  12. QuickTime VR Authoring • Address: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtvr • It is the award-winning photorealistic Cross-Platform VR software suite. • Applications can play any Quicktime Movies and Quicktime VR Movies. • Several software integrated together in the suite. • QuickTime VR Authoring Tools. • VR Worx • MapsaVR • Corel-Draw 8.0 • Sound SaVR • RevolVR

  13. Quicktime VR authoring Tools – create interactive VR scenes with simple clicks. • VR Worx - create panoramic movies, object movies and multi-node scenes in QuickTime VR. • MapsaVR – Add in navigations inside a VR scene. • Corel Draw 8.0 – Enhances photo to gain more realism and better rendering results. • SoundSaVR – Adds the directional sound to the VR scene. • RevolVR - Add auto-rotate capability to QTVR objects. • Conclusion – Quicktime VR provides authoring tool resource to help the VR user to finish their works.
