Summary:Finding optimal resource distribution networks implies the iterative sampling of network topologies that avoid overlapping paths and crossings with obstacles. This paper presents an approach to aid the search for minimal networks by visualizing the deployment of networks in virtual environments through a VR headset, enabling the possibility of natural and intuitive navigation (translation and rotation) to visualize the topology of the optimal resource distribution in a virtual environment. Our proposed approach has the potential to enable the interactive design of distribution networks in virtual domains. We present several examples showing the feasibility of our system.
