Virtual Reality Application of the Fortress Al Zubarah in Qatar Including Performance Analysis of Real-Time Visualisation

Abstract Technological advancements in the area of Virtual Reality (VR) past years have potential to fundamentally impact our everyday lives. VR makes it possible explore a digital world with Head-Mounted Display (HMD) an immersive, embodied way. In combination current tools for 3D documentation, modelling and software creating interactive virtual worlds, has means play important role conservation visualisation cultural heritage (CH) museums, educational institutions other areas. Corresponding game engines offer CH objects, which new form knowledge transfer direct participation users world. However, ensure smooth optimal real-time data HMD, applications should run at 90 frames per second. This frame rate is dependent on several criteria including amount or number dynamic objects. this contribution, performance application been investigated using different models fortress Al Zubarah Qatar various resolutions. We demonstrate influence by hardware equipment that developers find compromise between available computer hardware, guarantee approx. fps (frames second). Therefore, CAD better than meshed due significant reduced volume.
