Description:
Evaluation of early automotive design concepts is usually done by building full-size physical mock-ups, which require time and expense. The virtual mock-up has the potential to replace many early physical prototypes and provide flexibility in altering and viewing the concept, which is not possible with a physical part. This demonstration enables viewers to walk around and sit inside a car made only of light. The viewer is able to change color schemes and move illumination sources around by hand.
