The more the synthetic environment is convencing in simulating context and events, the stronger the feeling of reality. A typical immersive-type Virtual Reality System Virtual Reality has been developing since late 1960s in Space and Military researches. During the last two decades, progress in computer technology revealed a more popular area for Virtual Reality to take place in everyday life.
Virtual Reality is believed to be the 'sixth generation' of computer technology.
Virtual Reality has a lot to offer for humanity in many disciplines including medicine, psychology, education, astronomy, military, and architecture. Since Incorporating VEs in simulating early design concepts may very well enhance users' understnading of design concepts. To investigate the effeciency of the proposed Desktop VE system in enhancing users' participation in a design problem via experimental design. He is interested in publishing his initial results to get feedback from others who have similar or related research interests. Virtual landscapes for real people.
