An agricultural infrastructure is a representative social overhead capital to promote sustainable economic growth. To maximize economic improvement through infrastructure, agricultural infrastructure should be designed effectively because its shape or form can directly influence crop productivity. However, in the agricultural field, 2D drawings and specifications, which require training to interpret, are still widely employed to build agricultural infrastructure. Hence, building information modeling (BIM), which requires that 3D models of all infrastructure types or buildings be created, has been introduced. However, this 3D model is not sufficient to create the sense of presence when the agricultural infrastructure design reviewer walks through the 3D model presented on a monitor. The building information model computer-aided virtual environment (BIM CAVE) application, originally developed by Dr. Julian Kang, Texas A&M University, is employed in this study to increase a sense of presence. The existing application was updated in 2015 by an author after the existing source code associated with the vector product was revised to synchronize nine computers which surround the user in 2015. In addition, the application was updated again to be compatible with Autodesk Navisworks 2022 or later versions instead of Autodesk Navisworks 2012. Lastly, through interviews, the feasibility of the multi- monitor system based on the updated application is investigated to determine its appropriateness as an agricultural infrastructure review system.
