- Abstract
- Visual information has the greatest effect among five senses of human. Therefore, the satisfaction of visual information for representing virtual environments is necessary for good results in information acquisition, virtual training, virtual prototyping, etc. Recently, although there have been a large variety of display systems, there is no such a fully immersive and clearly projected display with high-resolution. In this paper, we describe a hemispherical display which supports a fully immersive experience and high-resolution images. In our display system for generating high-resolution images, a virtual scene image is divided into several pieces those are rendered by a PC cluster and projected with multiple projectors. In this paper, we also describe the PC cluster and projectors designed for optimized performance and a convenient control.
