Abstract
Despite notable advances over the past decade, current virtual reality systems have numerous drawbacks. The FlatWorld project at the University of Southern California's Institute for Creative Technologies seeks to overcome these limitations by exploring a new approach to virtual environments (VEs) inspired by Hollywood set-design techniques. Since the dawn of the film industry, movie sets have been constructed using modular panels called flats. Set designers use flats to create physical structures to represent various places and activities. The paper considers how FlatWorld is developing a reconfigurable system of digital flats. Using large-screen displays and real-time computer graphics technology, a single digital flat can appear as an interior room wall or an exterior building face.
