From: Niklas Elmqvist [d97elm@dtek.chalmers.se] Sent: Saturday, August 28, 1999 7:43 PM To: 3d-ui@hitl.washington.edu Subject: New member Hello, list! As a new member, I seem to be expected to tell you all a little about myself and my research. Well, here goes. I'm a Computer Science student at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, and have been extensively involved with Chalmers Medialab[1] during the spring and summer in developing various virtual reality applications for the Chalmers 3D-CUBE (an Onyx2-powered CAVE). One such project deals with developing a 3D interface for 2D X11 applications in VR, which is why I'm now exploring various aspects of 3D UI design. Hopefully, the vast collective knowledge in this area present on this mailing list will serve as a great resource for my feeble experiments. I'll be sure to post some more information as soon as I get my projects into some semblance of shape.
