  We developed an application launcher called Multiverse for scientific
visualizations in a CAVE-type virtual reality (VR) system. Multiverse can be
regarded as a type of three-dimensional (3D) desktop environment. In
Multiverse, a user in a CAVE room can browse multiple visualization
applications with 3D icons and explore movies that float in the air. Touching
one of the movies causes "teleportation" into the application's VR space. After
analyzing the simulation data using the application, the user can jump back
into Multiverse's VR desktop environment in the CAVE.
