Discussion<\/strong><\/p>\n

Paper 1 (write a paragraph for each)<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. For the listed systems choose\u00a0three<\/strong> design decisions that you thought were wise.<\/strong> \u00a0Describe what issues you thought these decisions addressed.<\/li>\n
  2. For the listed systems choose\u00a0three<\/strong>\u00a0design decisions that you thought were strange or misguided. \u00a0<\/strong>Describe you issues with the choices and what other approaches you think they could have taken.<\/li>\n
  3. What jumped out to you from this paper? \u00a0This could be something you found interesting or curious.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Paper 2 (pick 3, write 1 paragraph for each)<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The authors present another view on virtual reality. \u00a0Compare and contrast this with one of the previous definitions we have looked at in class (or another view you have found externally). \u00a0How would you define VR?<\/li>\n
    2. Do you agree with breakdown between MM and VR? \u00a0Why are why not? Do you agree that there is a\u00a0continuum\u00a0between the two?<\/li>\n
    3. How do you feel about the idea of non 1:1 mappings of physical and virtual environments described on page 531? \u00a0 Do you agree with the authors premise? \u00a0If so, in what kinds of applications could you foresee this being useful? \u00a0If not, in what kinds of problems do you foresee this type of mapping having?<\/li>\n
    4. What do you think of the breakdown of VS? \u00a0Do you agree with the authors segmentation in Figure 10? \u00a0In what ways would you equate or\u00a0differentiate\u00a0it to the ideas of presence we have discussed in earlier classes?<\/li>\n
    5. Do you agree with the authors that VS was far superior for “Pirates” over “Hercules”? \u00a0If not, describe why. \u00a0If you do, describe what “Hercules” could have done to better its VS<\/li>\n
    6. Find a topic that you interesting, dubious, or curious and explain why.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
