A new concept in display environments combines the best attributes of high end simulators with boardroom flat screen projection systems to produce a fully immersive, portable, scalable and collaborative environment. A single, high resolution projector using a custom designed lens comprises the projection engine of the system. A set of software libraries specifically designed to replace the industry standard OpenGL libraries provides proper perspective images to be imaged using existing data. Lastly, the viewing screen is a domed, tent‐like structure that creates a spherical image surface in an extremely lightweight and portable package. The scalable system has been implemented in dome structures ranging from 8 m to 3 m in diameter.
