A method for providing a configurable virtual reality environment comprises receiving virtual reality world implementation data that describes locations of structures within a virtual reality world from a customer at an input interface. The virtual reality world implementation data is mapped to a physical plan describing a physical implementation of the structures within the virtual reality world using a mapping controller. The physical plan provides indexing and reference points with respect to the physical implementation of the structures in the virtual reality word enabling the physical plan to define the structures in the real world using the mapping controller. Configurable hardware components necessary to build the physical implementation of the structures in the virtual reality world are determined responsive to the physical plan and a listing of available configurable hardware using a parts list controller. A parts list of the configurable hardware components necessary to build the physical implementation of the structures of the virtual reality world is generated using the parts list controller responsive to the determination. The customer is provided 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 plan.

A system for providing a configurable virtual reality environment model includes a plurality of wall panels that are removeably interconnectable with each other without a need for tools. A plurality of floor sections are removeably interconnectable without a need for tools and include a connection interface for removeably connecting the wall panels to the plurality of floor sections. The plurality of wall panels are configured to place physical walls in a location that corresponds to a virtual wall located within a virtual reality world such that when a virtual reality display shows the user touching a wall in the virtual reality world, the user feels the physical wall placed in the configurable virtual reality environment. At least one network accessible component associated with a portion of the plurality of wall panels provides tactile feedback to a user responsive to the user coming within a predetermined distance of a wall panel. A network controller connected to the at least one network accessible component through a network actuates operation of the at least one network accessible component responsive to the user coming within the predetermined distance of the wall panel.
