Abstract
A system utilizes a screen having a compound curvature to simulate an environment viewable from multiple vantage points. The compound curvature of the screen is such that the screen is curved in at least two directions about at least two axes. The display can be positioned behind a wall opening to provide a window effect. The display terminates its active image area outside of a region from which the display can be viewed to create a seemingly infinite simulated environment.
