Virtual reality (VR) is a high-end human computer interface that strives to immerse the designers and users completely in a virtual interactive environment for a simulation of real world. In order to meet the requirements of market competition, VR technologies can not only reduce effectively the time and cost, but also optimize complex products in the design process. Virtual reality is a rapidly developing...
Virtual Reality (VR) is one of the technologies that provides new opportunity to improve productivity and enhances quality of manufacturing. Automotive industry is considered as initial group to use and utilise VR technologies. This research investigates benefits and barriers regarding the use of VR. Six automotive companies in Malaysia were selected as case studies. A total number of 240 questionnaires...
Simulation of time-based and sensor-based traffic light control system at four-way intersection using Arena simulation software was studied. Introduction of sensors in traffic light system has been developed to reduce waiting time of vehicles at intersection. Simulation with Arena is done to observe if the improvement of sensor-based system is significant over the current system (fixed-time) and to...
In order to prevent the hazards associated with the crane application in workshops and factories, a self-propelled hydraulic floor crane with wire remote control was designed. The main focus was directed on remote control of the crane operations such as rotation of booms, rear and forward movements, changing travel speed, steering, braking and hook rotation. This configuration prevents the hazards...
This paper investigates the effect of real-time visual feedback to enhance user performance in manipulation of 3 discs “Tower Of Hanoi” task by using Microsoft Visual C++ and OpenGL as a graphic library. This study measures the effectiveness of time taken to complete the task between simulation with real-time visual feedback and without feedback. To do this, a group of respondent have been chosen...
This paper discusses the application of haptic feedback in Virtual Reality to enhance user performance in manufacturing. Haptic interfaces have the potential to enhance communication and interaction via the computer enabling affective expressive interpersonal communication and enriching interaction by haptic feedback. The aim of this study was to investigate and develop a better understanding of using...
The material presented in this project has illustrated that auditory interfaces are versatile and efficient means of establishing a communication between a computer system and the user. Listening is perhaps the communication channel with the highest bandwidth after visual perception, and certainly a channel whose characteristics are so different from visual perception.
