TY - CHAP U1 - Konferenzveröffentlichung A1 - Hinkenjann, André A1 - Mannuß, Florian T1 - basho - A Virtual Environment Framework T2 - Proceedings of the 7th Symposium on Virtual Reality (SVR 04) N2 - Most VE-frameworks try to support many different input and output devices. They do not concentrate so much on the rendering because this is tradi- tionally done by graphics workstation. In this short paper we present a modern VE framework that has a small kernel and is able to use different renderers. This includes sound renderers, physics renderers and software based graphics renderers. While our VE framework, named basho is still under development we have an alpha version running under Linux and MacOS X. Y1 - 2004 ER -
