Vision Dome
the VisionDome delivers a full-color, raster
based, interactive display,
with 360 degree projection a 180 degree
field of view. The tilted hemispherical screen is positioned so as to fill the field-of-view of the participants, creating a sense of immersion in the same way that large-screen cinemas draw the audience into the scene. The observer loses the normal depth cues, such as edges, and perceives 3D objects beyond the surface of the screen. The dome itself allows freedom of head motion, so that the observer can change their direction of view, and yet still have their vision fully encompassed by the image.
