Looks interesting, no GPU on my laptop unfortunately.

Real Time Relativity is a computer program running on Windows or Mac OSX systems that allows the user to interactively experience a virtual relativistic world.

Quick Facts

• Real Time Relativity is the centrepiece of the project Teaching Physics Using Virtual Reality.
• It uses the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) to do the calculations necessary to fly around in a world obeying relativistic optics. We have written a short paper about it.
• Instructions available here.
