We have modeled a helical keyboard,
a piano-style keyboard wrapped through a left-handed helix. The model
was generated with Mathematica and exported into
VRML.
A MIDI streamer animates the model in Open Inventor,
which system is augmented with virtual reality techniques including sound spatialization,
multiple user instantiations, automatic camera control, and resource management.
