我们正在探索如何将虚拟理论应用于棕榈台计算机。在我们的原型（称为变色龙）中，一个小的4英寸手持式显示器充当带有硅图形工作站的毛细管的掌上计算机。将6D输入设备和响应按钮附加到小型监视器上，以检测用户手势和输入选择以发行命令。进行了一项实验，以评估我们的设计，并与大型21英寸屏幕相比，在小屏幕上可以看出深度如何，以及小显示器的运动（在棕榈台虚拟现实条件下）的程度可以改善深度感知，结果表明，在棕榈台虚拟现实状况中深度的训练很少，深度的感知与大型（但静态）显示器中相应的深度感知大致相当。还讨论了对初始设计的变化，以及未来研究中待探索的问题，我们的研究表明，Palmtop虚拟现实可以支持有效的导航，搜索和检索，并在富裕和便携式信息空间中。
We are exploring how virtual reahty theories can be applied toward palmtop computers. In our prototype, called the Chameleon, a small 4-inch hand-held monitor acts as a palmtop computer with the capabihties of a Silicon graphics workstation. A 6D input device and a response button are attached to tbe small monitor to detect user gestures and input selections for issuing commands. An experiment was conducted to evaluate our design and to see how well depth could be perceived in the small screen compared to a large 21-inch screen, and the extent to which movement of the small display (in a palmtop virtual reality condition) could improve depth perception, Results show that with very little training, perception of depth in the palmtop virtual reality condition is about as good as corresponding depth perception in a large (but static) display. Variations to the initial design are also discussed, along with issues to be explored in future research, Our research suggests that palmtop virtual reality may support effective navigation and search and retrieval, in rich and portable information spaces.
