Defined in this standard is a reference architecture required for building a virtual reality (VR) training system for large space disaster response. The system using this architecture simulates responses to a disaster that can occur in a large-scale physical space by applying VR technology. The scope of this standard includes architecture, requirements, and system designs for VR disaster response training systems.

This standard defines an architecture required to implement a virtual reality (VR) system that can simulate responses to possible disasters in physical spaces, where users can move around with six degrees of freedom for training. This reference architecture includes the physical-to-virtual component that transfers sensor data in the physical space to the virtual world, the virtual-to-virtual component that conveys the data between virtual world objects, and the virtual-to-physical component that transfers the simulated responses in the virtual world to actuators in the physical world.
