50K-view question:
- For each Calit2 display, make notes about how it compares to the __immersive experience__ of the 1998 Brown Cave? (seams? head-tracked viewing? working volume size? tracking quality?)
- Make notes about how it compares to the proposed next-gen Cave. ("desktop resolution"? brightness, contrast, seams, 3D tracking quality?)
Alternative displays & projection material
- general discussion on this, commercial TV's come and go quickly..
- Are mfgt's thinking about tiling their displays & getting rid of borders?
- LG borderless display (http://www.electronichouse.com/article/lg_introduces_frameless_plasma_tv/)
- projecting on bezels (PrePrint: Tiled++: An Enhanced Tiled Hi-Res Display Wall)
- when will new LCD displays be available for purchase?
Should it be a surround Cave
- Discuss pros and cons of a surround Cave ("6-sided" vs an Cave with open side)
- A closed Cave lets you test the value of a closed Cave
- What about two "half-Caves" that can move together & apart?
Screens:
- How visible are the seams
- are the seams better/worse than vignetting
- How much more distorted will the image be for non tracked users
- How does the transition from wall to floor look
- how are the screens attached to the frame
- how rigid are the screens, is there any sway
- Do they have problems keeping them clean
- Are they prepared if a screen is damaged, needs replacement
Projectors:
- How well aligned are the projectors to the screens
- How well are the projector pairs aligned to each other
- How far away are the projectors (projector throw)
- Do they do any type of projector blending
Computer/Software:
- What software are they using to drive the displays
- How are the computers tied together, any special networking
- What computer configuration are they using
- What graphics cards
- What OS
Color Balance:
- I would like to look at color balance adjustments
- Are they using any type of aid to adjust color balance
3D Tracking:
- Document the pros/cons of each 3D tracking system
- Rate each 3D tracking system (camera, other?). Would it work well for CavePainting, ADVISER, CaveWriting, etc.?
