construct an environment using as many of the nodes and techniques we have

Remember that 1 unit = 1 meter.
requirements
do not create an environment which attempts to disorient and confuse the viewer.
Ensure that the answer to all of the following considerations is 'yes':
are there useful and/or appropriate viewpoints?
are there appropriate settings for user speed/size/headlight/viewtype/viewlimit?
are gravity and collisions handled wisely?
is it difficult for the user to get stuck on corners or 'trip'?
are there reasonable cues for maintaining viewer orientation? (e.g. "Where am I?")
is the purpose clear?
(e.g. "What am I supposed to be looking at?")
are there appropriate depth cues?
(e.g. "Can I tell whether that 20 pixel red sphere is small and close or large and distant?")
your grade will be calculated using the following form:
submission
create a web page called
task05.html that embeds your vrml file. Copy
task05.html and all associated files to a folder named
task05 in your class directory in your home area.
Pay attention to capitalization in file and directory names.
Test the link from the student work web page
and make sure there are no problems.
Make sure your vrml file will work correctly on the machine we will be using in class.
