University of Groningen also has a CAVE (with 3D shutterglasses). Went there a few years ago.

15000 euros, nothing keeps you from buying. Or make something else what works. 4 to 6 computers for every screen, 4 to 6 screens and 4 to 6 beamers, a few skills and there you go.

someone told me about certain universities that have ridicoulously expensive projection virtual reality caves that cost a fortune…and is not available to ANYONE from the general public…

That has a link to a page about a CAVE similiar to the one we want to run. And a short writeup on the Zukunftszentrum: http://blog.blendersprint.org/pages/zukunftszentrum

@RedBirdiii
You should check out the original post about the sprint that I linked to in the above post:

It answers both your questions.

VR is Virtual Reality. I think CAVE is where you walk around a room and you see through special glasses a fake 3D veiw of what's in the room, though it's not really there of course… I don't know for sure.
