Virtual Reality Toolbox    

Supported Computer Platforms

The VR server is the part of the Virtual Reality Toolbox that interfaces with your Simulink models. It stores information about the current state of virtual worlds and manages connections to VR clients. The VR client is a VRML viewer that displays a virtual world. The VR client can be either the Virtual Reality Toolbox viewer or a Web browser with a VRML plug-in.
