Publications

The following bibliography lists publications describing research, development and educational, projects which depend criticially on software, artwork, and/or tutorials produced by PublicVR.

Also, the Intelligent Virtual Environments group at the University of Teeside is using their own highly modified version of CaveUT. You can see their publications here.
