Abstract
A visualization goal is to simplify the analysis of
large-quantity, numerical data by rendering the data as an image that
can be intuitively manipulated. The question the article addresses is
whether or not virtual reality techniques are the cure-all to the
dilemma of visualizing increasing amounts of data. It determines the
usefulness of techniques available today and in the near future that
will ease the problem of visualizing complex data. In regards to
visualization, the article discusses characteristics of virtual reality
systems, data in three-dimensional environments, augmented reality, and
virtual reality market opportunities
