QuickTime VR for Windows -- QuickTime VR enhances the original QuickTime movie player for windows by giving users access to interactive 3D videos. In effect, QuickTime VR makes possible navigable movies -- you can look up and down, turn around, zoom in and zoom out, click and drag, and much more, all from within the QuickTime interface. QuickTime VR adds functionality to the original player on two dimensions -- first it allows for scenes, or virtual reality spaces, which are non-interactive 3-Dimensional movies that give added depth to scenes like panoramic mountain-top vistas and architectural blueprints. QuickTime VR also adds the capability for objects, which are interactive videos that allow you to examine, move, pick up, and make use of objects like books, art, and much more. For some QuickTime VR samples, be sure to check out Apple's extensive QuickTime VR site. Pros: Adds virtual reality 3D capabilities to the QuickTime player Cons: Only plays QuickTime movies and only works with the QuickTime player New: This is the initial review for QuickTime VR Version Reviewed: 2.1.1 Beta Date of Review: 2/7/96 Reviewer: Forrest Stroud apps conference Main Menu
