I am working on a series of books on AutoCAD for a major publisher. One of the
volumes involves AutoCAD in Architecture and a second book involves the
"Art-to-part" concept in manufacturing. All books involve multimedia/CD ROM as
part of their distrubution.
I am looking at incorporating, as appropriate, material on the application of
VR in the area of architecture and manufacturing. Any individual or vendor
working in these areas please contact me. I would like to look at real world
application of VR in these areas. Also, I would like to contact various VR
hardware and software vendors to look at state-of-the-art technologies and
trend in the industry.
Please contact me if you wish to contribute to this project.
Thanks,
Steve Foster
Steven,
The primary area on CompuServe that is discussing VR in all its aspects is the
CYBERFORUM. (go Cyberforum). There are a number of folks actively involved in
applications and development. Also there is a very delayed echo of the Usenet
newsgroup Sci.virtual-worlds which covers VR.
