Preamble

In an accompanying discussion, we have illustrated how an animated, interactive 3D scene can be largely defined via the xml-formatted language named COLLADA. In the last major subsection of that discussion, we have outlined the steps that can be followed to specifically generate any of a variety of Riemann Type S ellipsoids.

In a separate but closely connected discussion, we have demonstrated that each of our COLLADA-based models can be imported into the 3D virtual-reality environment of the Oculus Rift S. Toward the end of this separate discussion, we provide the full COLLADA code — in a plain text format —

After about six months of work, I decided that this development had progressed to the point where we should start seriously exploring what hardware should be acquired in order to allow us to fully view and interact with these COLLADA-based scenes. Here we explain what steps were followed as we attempted to figure out how to import such 3D scenes into the VR/AR environment offered by the Oculus Rift S.
