Description
Virtual reality (VR) has long been touted as a new paradigm for interaction. Consumer grade virtual reality headsets now have sufficient resolution to read documents and a new wave of hand controllers can be used as virtual keyboards. With privacy protection and security a top concern for personal, business, and military applications, the design of VR hardware and systems is naturally conducive to enhanced privacy and security. Correspondingly, the video gaming community has funded the creation of extensive software infrastructure for developing virtual and augmented reality, including initial support for virtual workspaces. Recently introduced VR components and infrastructure can be enhanced and leveraged to support interconnected virtual workspaces with a high degree of privacy / security protection for personal, business and military use, including supporting for processing information seamlessly across multiple zones of security. For this Phase I effort, a system and security architecture, inclusive of both hardware and software, is defined. This architecture will show top level data and control flow. A prototype user interface is also delivered.
