Abstract :
This work describes a Demo to be presented at exp.at´15 Demo Session based in the use of an Oculus Rift Development Kit 2, and a set of virtual reality (VR) applications developed to be interacted by using a haptic device. The system pretends to be an experimental room where four basic experiments are available. The use of the Oculus VR, a type of a head-mounted display, offering a stereoscopic 3D View, combined with the haptic device interacting with the VR applications, is an example of Next-Generation Virtual Reality Technology. The system has been developed to be used in "Life Sciences Centers" and which can be entitled Next-Generation Experimental Lab. This tool can also be online available.
