Technology Lab) Organization: U of Florida Engineering Computer Support Facility Lines: 15 Approved: cyberoid@milton.u.washington.edu Greetings! I am a new reader here. Could anybody out there point me where I could ftp the archives of this group? and is there FAQ for this group? I am working in Robotics field, but we are doing traditional research, now I am trying to look for the new approach for the simulation. seems VR is the direction. However, I know nothing about VR. Could anyone point me where to start? is there any book or paper to introduce the beginner in VR field? Thanks.....
