PICO: Interactive Computer Program for Rigid Object Simulation based on Physics
نویسنده
چکیده
The design and implementation of a demonstrative program for the interactive simulation of rigid objects based on physics (PICO) is presented. The program uses VRML for 3D visualization and External Authoring Interface (EAI) for the simulation’s interaction. A summary of the proposed model using Unified Modeling Language (UML) is presented in order to describe the strategies used in the implementation’s design. We include use case diagrams, class diagrams, interaction diagrams and state diagrams. Finally descriptions of demonstrative simulations and proposals for classroom experiments using the system are presented.

Planning and Control of Two-Link Rigid Flexible Manipulators in Dynamic Object Manipulation Missions
This research focuses on proposing an optimal trajectory planning and control method of two link rigid-flexible manipulators (TLRFM) for Dynamic Object Manipulation (DOM) missions. For the first time, achievement of DOM task using a rotating one flexible link robot was taken into account in [20]. The authors do not aim to contribute on either trajectory tracking or vibration control of the End-...
متن کاملUsing a Novel Concept of Potential Pixel Energy for Object Tracking
Abstract In this paper, we propose a new method for kernel based object tracking which tracks the complete non rigid object. Definition the union image blob and mapping it to a new representation which we named as potential pixels matrix are the main part of tracking algorithm. The union image blob is constructed by expanding the previous object region based on the histogram feature. The pote...

In this report a new approach for haptic volume interaction with rigid bodies is described. The main goal of our system is to build a bone fragment assembly system. 3D object manipulation is made possible using two haptic devices. The interaction points represent the fingertips of the user. The system includes several components; such as 3D Voronoi diagram calculation for distance field computa...
متن کاملAn Efficient Method for Simulating Flexible Connectors
Physically-based dynamic simulation has been an active research area for many years. It is an important technique to enhance the realism of interactive multimedia or computer graphics applications. However, while most of these applications require real-time performance to handle user interactions, dynamic simulation is generally expensive computationally, as simulating a flexible (non-rigid) ob...
