The VRSG User Interface

The VRSG graphical user interface consists of a tabbed dialog box called the Dashboard, and a visualization window which displays the virtual world. Interation within VRSG is designed to limit context switching between the Dashboard and the virtual world. Status response to each action and help information appears as an overlay on the virtual world displayed in the vizualization window. In this way, VRSG communicates the significance of every action as it affects your ability to view entities from within the virtual world.

VRSG enables you to fully operate in the virtual world without having to leave your state of immersion to interact with the Dashboard. MetaVR has seamlessly integrated the features of the Microsoft DirectX standard with the ease of use of 6 DOF controllers to provide a superior virtual world viewing experience.

Each tab in the Dashboard contains settings for characteristics of the virtual world visualization session, such as network options, graphic parameters, terrain database to use, entities to attach and detach, and so on.

You click the "Start VRSG" button on the right to switch to the visualization window. To see more, click on a tab in the image above or one of the links below.
