The EVE: A Virtual Environment at HUT

(2000 - 2008)

The EVE was a rear-projection based virtual reality system where the users were surrounded by screens measuring approximately 3 by 3 meters. The stereoscopic images were reflected into these screens and were viewed through stereo shutter glasses. As a result of head tracking, the user could move around these stereoscopic three-dimensional objects which he or she saw. The user with a head tracking device could also interact with the virtual environment with other tracked sensors. The EVE was operated by the Telecommunications Software Laboratory of the Helsinki University of Technology.
