大型显示器是可视化大规模数据集的核心组件之一，允许用户渲染大量信息并将其呈现在相应的上下文中。然而，这些显示器仍然具有许多缺点，如随着显示器尺寸呈指数级增加的高成本和显示器设置的固定性。在本文中，我们介绍了一个虚拟的大屏幕，被设计为替代物理大显示器。它是在Oculus Rift头戴式显示器（HMD）的帮助下实现的。佩戴虚拟眼镜的用户能够看到和探索虚拟屏幕，并利用其尺寸优势，而无需物理对应物的成本和位置限制。我们的系统的初步评估表明，用户的感知和认知能力是相似的工作在大型物理显示器和我们的大型虚拟屏幕。
Large displays are one of the core components of visualizing large-scale data sets, allowing users to render a larger amount of information and present it in the corresponding context. However, these displays still have many disadvantages, like the high costs that increase exponentially with display size and the immobility of the display setups. In this paper, we introduce a virtual large screen that is designed as an alternative to physical large displays. It is implemented with the help of the Oculus Rift head mounted display (HMD). Users wearing the virtual glasses are able to see and explore a virtual screen and make use of its size advantages without the cost and location restrictions of the physical counterpart. A preliminary evaluation of our system suggests that the users' perception and cognitive abilities are similar for both working on large physical displays and our large virtual screens.
