Abstract	The dream of ubiquitous virtual reality (VR) tools has been a powerful presence in pop culture since before the turn of the century. But for all of its charm, VR applications are few and far between due to the high cost of hardware setups and cumbersome form factor. This project investigates the possibility of bringing VR concepts to mobile devices, which have become relatively inexpensive, travel-savvy computing platforms that are capable of displaying 3D graphics at interactive speeds. The investigation examines related work in the context of the VR community's evolving ontology and taxonomy, builds and tests an example VR interface that leverages the user's kinesthetic sense modality, and discusses a plan for future study.
