Introduction
VR provides a great environment for exploring 3D and 4D data, and sharing this environment using the Collaborative VR module in arivis Pro VR is the best way to let multiple users enjoy the same benefits of depth perception which makes VR such an asset. However, Since it is hardly practical to equip a complete auditorium with VR headsets at present, creating movies that can be easily added to presentations is probably the next best thing. Since VR provides a great way to navigate through datasets and encourages exploring viewpoints that may me be difficult to conceive using screen based 3D viewers, it is also a great environment to create such animations for export.
The VR Stories module in arivis Pro VR provides the tools needed to create animations directly in the VR environment for export as movies.
