Navigation Functionality for Virtual Archaeology

چکیده
The paper reports the ongoing functional specification of a virtual archaeology system. Taking into account the goals of ISO standards MPEG-7 and SEDRIS, we have summarized methodologies from related IT fields (visualization, multimedia, HCI and VR) relevant for virtual archaeology system functionality. One part of the ideas has been used to specify the functionality of a particular system for immersively exploring the ancient Greek excavations model within the Studierstube virtual reality installation. In particular, the visualization scenarios, navigation modes and sound spaces complete functionalities were specified. The results contribute both to current methodology and future research findings.

متن کاملNavigation of a Mobile Robot Using Virtual Potential Field and Artificial Neural Network
Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...
متن کاملAn Introduction to the Use of Fuzzy Mathematics in Archeology (Case Study: Virtual Reconstruction of Togrul Tower by Using Fuzzy Reliability)
Nowadays, the use of fuzzy mathematics and fuzzy logic are increasing in various sciences. Archaeology is one of the sciences that is less attended with the methods of fuzzy mathematics and fuzzy logic. Due to the nature of many archaeological data, however, the use of such methods in archaeology can be beneficial. In this research, it has been tried to explain applications of fuzzy logic and f...
