… creating challenging

… creating simulations with
enough functional fidelity that they almost
seem real
… introducing elements of
game play that up adrenaline
levelsa bit
… creating 3D models of interesting
objects that can be manipulated
and explored
… creating virtual worlds with enough
physical fidelity that they become
immersive
