Virtual Prototyping – State of the Art in Product Design
نویسندگان
چکیده
Digital mock-ups (DMU) are the platform for Virtual Prototyping (VP). Therefore, questions concerning VP are focused on the integration of computer-based tools and methods for DMU. Which reliability concerning the assessment of product characteristics do digital mock-ups have? What kind of representation/visualization is necessary to achieve a high reliability [4] concerning the assessment of product characteristics of digital mock-ups? Which possibilities do we have to interact with the digital mock-ups directly? To find valid responses to the mentioned questions we have to look to immersive projection technology (IPT) systems [2].
