This paper introduces jReality, a thread-safe Java scene graph designed with mathematical experiments in mind, including support for rendering noneuclidean geometries. The design provides a clean separation between scene graph frontend and rendering backends. Available backends include interactive viewers for workstations as well as CAVE-like environments, a PostScript backend, and a RenderMan backend. The CAVE viewer synchronizes several copies of a scene graph across a network. The tool system of jReality transparently matches interactive aspects of a scene to available input devices. For instance, a jReality application will accept input from keyboards and mice as well as the tracking devices of a CAVE, without requiring any changes to the application. GUI widgets may be part of the scene.
