A '''cave automatic virtual environment''' ('''CAVE''') is a [[virtual reality]] environment where [[digital projector|projectors]] show images on the walls of a room. The images are projected to at least three of the walls of a room-sized cube. The name is a reference to the allegory of the Cave in Plato's ''Republic''.
