Virtual Reality

Virtualot is a concept-phase portal for wide-scale real estate marketing through internet access and virtual tours. Computer-based VR systems include sensors to track information transferral from humans to computers, 3D rendering software and screen displays to transmit computer-to-human communication, and high-performance computers to control the formation of virtual objects and orchestrate how they make connections with humans. In order to create a feeling of engagement with a realistic environment, computing systems should sense and process at least fifty (and optimally 100 or more) interactions from a human to a computer each second. At lower speeds, the human brain receives contradictory signals from the tiny organs in the inner ear (which sense movement in real time) vs. one's eyes (that sense a delayed image), resulting in movement sickness and disconfiguration. As computer performance increases, it is easier to reduce the delay in the interaction between humans and artificially-generated worlds. This expands the availability and range of uses for Virtual Reality (VR). For more about virtual reality, see psychological definitions of virtual reality as well.

While the vast majority of virtual home tours are not yet enveloping or truly 3D virtual reality, they are growing rapidly and it is likely that genuinely enveloping and 3D real property tours for both the residential and commercial property will be developed during the next five years.

Virtual Reality is a three-dimensional setting within which a human can interact comprised of computer generated parts and is animated by a sufficiently high amount of artificial intelligence to appear real to the participating human. To be enveloping, a setting must engage a sufficient quantity of human senses with sufficient realism to give the person engaged a feeling of engaging a natural setting. With today's science and equipment, this level of engagement usually includes images covering most of the human field of vision with reasonable clarity, relatively high-quality sound, and at least basic human to computer interaction built on hand and head motion. More higher-order types of kinesthetic (touch) interaction engaging motion by rest of the human body and additional senses especially taste and smell can improve realism, but usually are not needed to attain the definition of virtual reality given present day technology. The minimal criteria for virtual reality will likely increase as applied science advances. Further, the components of mixed reality includes coverage of interesting topics.

The edges of an object separate it from the setting. The geometry of these edges also provides visual signals about its three-dimensionality. The edges around an object create its outline and are the link between interaction among things (including overlap, scale, and parallax) and the internal angle of the object. The interior dimensions of an object bridge the outer boundaries of the object and its inner surfaces and textures. Together, the outer and inner edges of an object provide strong cues about its 3D size, location, orientation, and movement. The site virtual cartography may also be of interest.
