Maze was part of a research project by Marc Aurel Schnabel. I was in charge tooling an existing desktop VR software with realtime tracking and interaction. The result of the project now can act as desktop virtual environment (VE) as well as a immersive virtual environment with 6DOF tracking.

Originally this software was developed by Tse Hiu Ming from the computer science department of the University of Hong Kong. I took over development in 2001. Due to the specific nature of one software acting as both desktop and immersive VR viewer most parts had to be rewritten. It also acted as a testbed for some of the libraries developed by technotecture.
