The VU

Short description

Is it a field explorer or a precision point cloud modeling tool? Is it a three dimensional Spirograph or a fun way to play in a virtual sandbox without all that messy cleanup? Is it way to use virtual reality to explore of the fundamental composition of the universe or is it more like an abstract flight simulator?
