3D Modelling Is Not for WIMPs

چکیده
This study compares a traditional 3D WIMP (Window Icon Menu Pointer) modeller to a prototype of a novel system with a 6DOF haptic feedback device, stereovision and a co-located display, both in quantitative and qualitative terms. The novel system was conceived to overcome limitations of traditional interaction techniques and devices when dealing with three-dimensions. Experimental results confirm the fundamental role of spatial input for 3D modelling and the significant contribution of haptics and stereovision to qualitative and quantitative performance. A review of relevant research and motivations for the study is presented along with a discussion of main outcomes.

3D Modelling Is Not For WIMPs Part II: Stylus/Mouse Clicks
Here we present a companion study to work previously detailed in “3D Modelling is not for WIMPs” (Scali, S., Wright, M., Shillito, A.M., 2003). In that study we showed that the use of a 3D haptic environment in combination with stereovision provided a marked improvement in the ability to complete a 3D task when compared to traditional WIMP (Window, Icon, Menu, Pointer) interfaces. Using the sam...
متن کاملFundamentals of 3D modelling and resource estimation in coal mining
The prerequisite of maintaining an efficient and safe mining operation is the proper design of a mine by considering all aspects. The first step in a coal mine design is a realistic geometrical modelling of the coal seam(s). The structural features such as faults and folding must be reliably implemented in 3D seam models. Upon having a consistent seam model, the attributes such as calorific val...
متن کامل3D Modelling of Under Ground Burried Objects Based on Ground Penetration Radar
There is a growing demand for mapping and 3D modelling of buried objects such as pipelines, agricultural hetitage, landmines and other buried objects. Usually, large scale and high resolution maps from these objects are needed. Manually map generation and modeling of these objects are cost and time consuming and is dependent on lots of resources. Therefore, automating the subsurface mapping and...
متن کاملDeveloping a BIM-based Spatial Ontology for Semantic Querying of 3D Property Information
With the growing dominance of complex and multi-level urban structures, current cadastral systems, which are often developed based on 2D representations, are not capable of providing unambiguous spatial information about urban properties. Therefore, the concept of 3D cadastre is proposed to support 3D digital representation of land and properties and facilitate the communication of legal owners...
متن کاملTarget detection Bridge Modelling using Point Cloud Segmentation Obtained from Photogrameric UAV
In recent years, great efforts have been made to generate 3D models of urban structures in photogrammetry and remote sensing. 3D reconstruction of the bridge, as one of the most important urban structures in transportation systems, has been neglected because of its geometric and structural complexity. Due to the UAV technology development in spatial data acquisition, in this study, the point cl...
