Incorporating three dimensional sound in Virtual Environments

This paper focuses on the behavior of sound on combining: "Navigation, 3D objects and 3D sound", in different virtual worlds, which are displayed on multiple screens. Our project allows building different virtual environment using one or more screens, with a full navigation system, four ways of manipulating using keyboard, head tracker, remote control and input files with different predefined tours. Furthermore, with this project we can also build a Wheatstone-type stereoscope. We have implemented three virtual worlds for the different environments: The first one shows a collection of anaglyphic photographs; the second one is a collection of photographs of roman art; the third one is a computing center.
