Abstract
Nowadays the virtual reality technology is a topic of present and is an interest for research and development. There are different devices with which the user may enter, observe and interact with the computer-simulated three-dimensional world. For this reason applications of virtual reality can be in different areas. But the topical task nowadays is applying this modern technology in education. This report presents the results from the investigations into Philips multiview autostereocopic 3D displays and with the purpose of creating virtual reality applications for education objectives. An approach for creation of 3D video applications for the displays discussed in this paper is also presented.
