Research of Virtools Virtual Reality Technology to Landscape Designing

The technology of virtual reality is an advanced computer user interface technology, which provides users with a variety of intuitive and natural real-time senses and interactive means in the aspects of vision, touch, taste,etc, thus realizing the most convenient user-computer interaction without any complicated keyboard operation and improving the efficiency of the whole system. virtual reality is basically characterized by immersion,interaction and imagination. The designer and the user can get the comprehensive result of survey and design when the virtual reality technology is applied. The landscape architecture designing. Furthermore, this technology can show the user or designer the total information on landscape space, enable the user or designer do some long-distance on-line browsing and communicating,make computerassisted designing and decision, and help the public participate. However, there are several key problems in application of virtual reality technology landscape architecture designing, such as modeling of virtual environment, real-time 3D-imagegenerating technology, interactive technology and system integrating technology. With the rapid development of virtual reality technology and the active participation of the landscape architects, the application of the virtual reality technology.The landscape architectural designing will surely bring along the innovation of the methodology and essence of landscape architecture designing.
