System and method for haptic mapping of a configurable virtual reality environment

A method for providing a configurable virtual reality environment, comprising:

• uploading virtual reality world implementation data that describes locations of structures within a virtual reality world from a customer at an input interface;
• mapping the virtual reality world implementation data to a physical implementation of the structures within the virtual reality world;
• generating a physical plan for building the physical implementation of structures within the virtual reality world and a parts list of configurable hardware components needed to build the physical implementation of the structures within the virtual reality world responsive to the uploaded virtual reality world implementation data;
• receiving the physical plan for building the physical implementation of the structures within the virtual reality world and the parts list of configurable hardware components needed to build the physical implementation of the structures within the virtual reality world;
• selecting at least a portion of the configurable hardware components for purchase responsive to the received physical plan and the received parts list;
• and
• receiving the selected configurable hardware components.

A method for providing a configurable virtual reality environment, comprising:

• receiving virtual reality world implementation data that describes locations of structures within a virtual reality world from a customer at an input interface;
• mapping the virtual reality world implementation data to a physical implementation of the structures within the virtual reality world;
• generating a physical plan for construction of the physical implementation of the structures of the virtual reality world responsive to the mapping, the physical plan providing indexing and reference points with respect to the physical implementation of the structures in the virtual reality world enabling the physical plan to define the structures in a real world using a mapping controller;
• accessing a database listing all available configurable hardware components;
• determining the configurable hardware components necessary to build the physical implementation of the structures in the virtual reality world responsive to the physical plan and a listing of available configurable hardware stored within the database using a parts list controller;
• generating a parts list of the configurable hardware components necessary to build the physical implementation of the structures of the virtual reality world using the parts list controller responsive to the determination;
• and
• providing the customer with the physical plan describing the physical implementation of the structures within the virtual reality world, the parts list and the configurable hardware components needed to build the physical implementation of the structures of the virtual reality world.
