A virtual reality data presentation system capable of improving naturalness of the system operation and data presentation. In the system, 3D model is presented according to 3D model data; input data for manipulating objects in the presented 3D model is entered; and a presentation of the 3D model is controlled according to the 3D model data, the entered input data, and control data specifying reactions of the objects in the presented 3D model with respect to the entered input data. In addition, in the system, real object data are obtained from actual objects represented by the objects in the 3D model; and a presentation of the presented 3D model is controlled to selectively present selected ones of the objects in the 3D model in terms of the obtained real object data.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of presenting the visual image data and the audio sound data which react more naturally with respect to the operations made by the operator.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of determining a natural display position for an object in the virtual space moved in response to the operations made by the operator.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of providing easily comprehensible and more informative position information to the operator.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of presenting various material properties of the objects in the virtual space.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of adjusting the settings of the presentation parameters according to the attributed values of the individual user and enabling any operator to experience the different standpoints of various different users.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of providing the real image and sound data for judgement making to the operator whenever necessary while reducing the unnecessary load on the system.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of checking the reflections due to the lights in the 3D model representing the 3D arrangement of the 3D objects.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of displaying and freely correcting the 3D model representing the 3D arrangement of the 3D objects.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a virtual reality data presentation system capable of displaying the 3D model with the natural shadow images at high speed
