Abstract
The article describes selected components and connected procedures applied in virtual reality scene which emphasize quality and quantity of perception of visualized information and at the same time improve comfort for the user. Firstly, perception of space, movement and interaction are identified as key aspects of virtual reality in visualization. To fulfill these three aspects, the components of the virtual scene, such as the floor, the horizon, the origin of the space coordinate system, the hands, and others, are defined. The methods of their use is demonstrated through typical examples and advanta ges and gained experience is added.
