Abstract :
We will try to show the basic principles of teleimmersive system, its main components, development, demonstrations and potential uses one of today´s most challenging network application. Teleimmersion involves combining teleconferencing, telepresence and virtual reality to allow individuals to manipulate shared environment, converse, interact and even see each other. Teleimmersion is at the crossroad of researches related to virtual reality and networking, vision of computers and user interfaces. So, it can be said that just a little part of all of this research areas is unified and carefully sistemated.
