The creators of the EON ICUBE, EON Reality Inc., describe it as "a new revolutionary PC based multi-sided immersive environment in which participants are completely surrounded by virtual imagery and 3D sound." That explains what it is but I doubt it fully describes the experience. Imagine being inside a six-sided cube that can mimic any environment or scenario a programmer can code?
Implications - The featured video shows off a quick experience of viewing Portugal Town through the EON ICUBE. It is like you are actually there in the town itself! The EON ICUBE was built based on PC technology where several computers were connected together to create "simultaneous images in stereo" which is formally called stereoscopic visualization.
