Using VRML to Build a Virtual Reality Campus Environment

Virtual reality has been involved in a wide range of academic and commercial applications. It can give users a natural feeling of the environment by creating realistic virtual worlds. Since its first release in 1994, the VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) is widely used today for simulations, scientific visualizations and different architectural models on the internet. In this paper we discuss the design of a virtual reality model of University of Sargodha, Pakistan. We have also discussed the issues faced during the development of our model. Finally we have presented an analysis of applicability of VRML in such applications.
