Software includes a virtual-world system, renderers, drivers, interfaces, subject monitor, task controller and editor. The complete system runs in real time. As soon as the components and the complete SCAT-LAB become available, multisensory pilot studies in human factors will be conducted. Research issues to be addressed are selected in order to support the construction of interactive VR systems. The definition and specification phase was finished on in April 1993 and the first milestone document compiled.
