In this chapter, an efficient technique for distributing the data in collaborative virtual reality simulations is presented. The technique described incorporates the culling and level of detail concepts in virtual reality (VR) to obtain cell-based bounding volumes in each virtual environment. Defined bounding volumes are utilized in filtering the data that is transferred between different virtual...
This chapter presents an approach to integrate a virtual reality (VR) environment with manufacturing control methodologies leading to enhanced visualization and control of manufacturing processes. A Petri Net-based model is used to represent the control architecture of a manufacturing system. A Decision Support System (DSS) is developed here that integrates the process control methodology designed...
This chapter discusses the concept and the first pilot implementation of a hybrid approach to the realistic representation of human performance in virtual manufacturing environments. The approach employs simulation principles of both virtual reality (VR) and digital mannequin (DM) technologies. The software tool developed, called VRSP, enables the immersive virtual performance of an industrial task,...
The purpose of this research is to develop new a virtual assembly (VA) and disassembly system that uses natural interaction and control of objects and machinery. This VA system deals with parts, tools, machines and workplaces positioned in their usual places and working in the expected ways. We developed a system optimized for both performance and ease of use. For example, tools and machines work...
