Abstract: Virtual
reality technology is applied to Web-based interior design. Some special
features can thus be easily implemented. For example, the top, front, side,
and perspective views of a 3D interior design can be shown simultaneously.
The four views can change to reflect movement of the user in a room. Users
can collaborate to complete a design. On the other hand, one can act as a
teacher and the others are students of interior design. Furthermore, a
furniture company can use the interior design application to showcase and
sell its products.
