Virtual reality tool for visualising RGB colour space using VRML

This paper presents a novel Virtual Reality tool for visualising image neighbourhoods. It is currently implemented using RGB colour space, but the technique is not limited to Cartesian spaces. The Visualisation Tool is based on Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML). Visualisation using virtual reality techniques is a useful tool to help evaluate the effectiveness of colour filters. It can also be used as an aid to developing new ideas for filters. VRML makes Virtual Reality Visualisation Tools relatively trivial to implement and negates the need for expensive software packages.
