Underground cave systems are complex geometry to understand on 2D screen but are easier to analyze using immersive environment such as a CAVE. Indeed, this system represent over 4 miles of cave survey data creating a 3D model of the cave structure where color encode the depth. Navigation is done using the wand’s joystick, i.e. forward and backward linked to panning and left and right to rotation.
