Virtual environments section include something along the lines of: Another parallel is the virtual world Second Life where people interact socially in a virtual environment on the internet.
Possibility of commons repository stored across peer-to-peer file distribution network.
Interfaces
- Space mouse
- Haptic exoskeleton forearm
- 3D displays
Advanced projects
- Software components
- System simulators
Physics and analysis
Kinematics, dynamics, physics engines to simulate gravity, friction etc. Common analytical tools: FEA, CFD, thermal etc.
Other
- http://www.simgear.org - engine from flight-gear
Another important area are truly open standards for associated file formats, and file converters to extract data from models created with proprietary CAD packages.
