NC State engineers study the future using a virtual reality cave.

NC State's College of Engineering houses a virtual reality cave using 3-D graphics in a VR environment. Users put on headsets, step in, and are completely surrounded in a virtual environment, which can be used to solve engineering problems. It is also being tested for use by students, specifically to teach concepts of size and scale.
