Krueger -- Environmental Technology

Krueger, Myron W. "Environmental technology: making the real world virtual". Communications of the ACM (36.7), July 1993: pp. 36-37.

Summary



Not much to this one. It's filler for a glossy magazine. The interesting points are the use of gesture and hand input for virtual environments. VIDEOPLACE and VIDEODESK use image capture (cameras) to track movement in the environment and allow for the interaction with a virtual world, as well as collaboration with others.

Discussion



Not really anything to say here.
