CAVE™ Virtual Reality

The original and most widely installed fully immersive
visualization system in the world

Overview CAVE Applications Request a Quote Downloads

The Mechdyne CAVE virtual reality system is a room-sized advanced visualization solution that combines high-resolution, stereoscopic projection and 3D computer graphics to create a complete sense of presence in a virtual environment.

Multiple users experience virtual environments at the same time

The CAVE virtual reality system was the first virtual reality technology in the world to allow multiple users to become fully immersed in the same virtual environment at the same time. Today, more CAVE virtual reality systems are installed in visualization facilities around the world than any other spatially immersive display system. The CAVE virtual reality system is available with four projected surfaces (three walls and floor); five surfaces, or fully enclosed six-surface configurations for complete virtual immersion.

Scalable resolution to 100 million pixels and higher

Mechdyne can scale the resolution of the CAVE virtual reality system by using more than one projector per wall. Standard CAVE virtual reality systems display approximately one million pixels per wall. Mechdyne can deliver up to 16 million pixels per wall.

For more information about our 3D & advanced A/V display systems, please contact Mechdyne.

The CAVE virtual reality solution is ideal for a number of different applications including:

Manufacturing and design reviews
Seismic interpretation and well planning
Biotech research
Computational fluid dynamics
Any application that requires users to be "inside" or immersed in the data

Features & Benefits include:

Analyze and interpret spatially related data faster with surround screens
Engage the "whole brain" via. immersion for enhanced awareness retention
Intuitively navigate realistic, life-size environments for research or design
Impress visitors with unique perspectives and experiences
Focus on your data, not the technology with a fully integrated display, software, computing and support solution
