SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HAPTIC MAPPING OF A CONFIGURABLE VIRTUAL REALITY ENVIRONMENT
A system for providing a configurable virtual reality environment model includes a plurality of wall panels that are removeably interconnectable with each other without a need for tools. A plurality of floor sections are removeably interconnectable without a need for tools and include a connection interface for removeably connecting the wall panels to the plurality of floor sections. The plurality of wall panels are configured to place physical walls in a location that corresponds to a virtual wall located within a virtual reality world such that when a virtual reality display shows the user touching a wall in the virtual reality world, the user feels the physical wall placed in the configurable virtual reality environment. At least one network accessible component associated with a portion of the plurality of wall panels provides tactile feedback to a user responsive to the user coming within a predetermined distance of a wall panel. A network controller connected to the at least one network accessible component through a network actuates operation of the at least one network accessible component responsive to the user coming within the predetermined distance of the wall panel.
