The VisBox is an affordable immersive 3D display. The system provides large, passive stereo imagery within a small footprint.

The VisBox makes use of the newest in bright, sharp digital projectors. The turn-key VR option adds the newest in PC graphics workstation hardware, a 6 DOF tracked input device (wand), and the VisTrack wireless optical head-tracker. The result is a system that outperforms much more expensive traditional VR hardware.

The VR software environment includes a simple to use VisBox API, complete with demo applications. In addition, the system is pre-configured for use with common VR libraries such as CAVElib, FreeVR, vrJuggler, and DIVERSE.

The VisBox-P1 model features portability. The system folds down in seconds to a profile of 33" wide and 80" tall, allowing it to roll through doorways. The system is configured with XGA (1024x768) projectors, with light output of 2500 lumens per projector. Like the the other VisBox models, it is available either as a stand-alone 3D stereo display or as a turn-key projection-based VR system with head and wand tracking.
