Miele CAVE -VR design for around the home
"CAVE technology lets products appear in a virtual worldhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_world before they exist in reality, thus enabling a number of different doctrines and technologies to be integrated much faster and the process of development and innovation accelerated in speed and quality. Product developers, designers and engineers can see the end result before it is crafted with real atomshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom , enabling them to discuss and refine the end result without much effort and cost. The speed gained by avoiding errors in communication between the design modalities enables more experimention in a shorter time-frame and more importantly, a better end result."
