IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 2000•ieeexplore.ieee.orgImmersive virtual reality (IVR) has the potential to be a powerful tool for the visualization of
burgeoning scientific data sets and models. We sketch a research agenda for the hardware
and software technology underlying IVR for scientific visualization. In contrast to
Brooks'(1999) excellent survey which reported on the state of IVR and provided concrete
examples of its production use, this article is somewhat speculative. It does not present
solutions but rather a progress report, a hope, and a call to action, to help scientists cope …
