摘要：

Virtual reality (VR) is well known and is currently being investigated for practical use in various industrial fields. Using three-dimensional computer graphics, interactive devices, and a high-resolution display, a virtual world can be realized in which imaginary objects can be picked up as if they were in the physical world. Using VR technology, Matsushita Electric Works, Ltd. has been developing application systems for industrial use since 1990. This paper derails four VR application systems: a relax/refresh system, a horseback riding therapy simulator, a VR-supported kitchen layout design system, as well as an urban planning VR system.
