A Low Cost Flight Simulator Using Virtual Reality Tools
Yavrucuk, İlkay; Tarimci, Onur (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2011-04-01)
A helicopter simulator is built using Head-Mount-Displays (HMD) and Data Gloves with trackers to test the viability of virtual reality tools in low-cost flight simulation. The simulator uses FlightGear as its simulation environment and an in-house developed UH-1H helicopter flight dynamics model. Running several clone simulations on different computers allowed stereo imaging on the HMD and instructor station applications. Data Gloves with trackers enabled interaction with the virtual cockpit.
A virtual human animation tool using motion capture data
Nar, Selim; Çetin, Yasemin; Department of Medical Informatics (2008)
In this study, we developed an animation tool to animate 3D virtual characters. The tool offers facilities to integrate motion capture data with a 3D character mesh and animate the mesh by using Skeleton Subsurface Deformation and Dual Quaternion Skinning Methods. It is a compact tool, so it is possible to distribute, install and use the tool with ease. This tool can be used to illustrate medical kinematic gait data for educational purposes. For validation, we obtained medical motion capture data from two s...
A Virtual reality-based training environment designed for hands-on experience of software development
Güleç, Ulaş; İşler, Veysi; Yılmaz, Murat; Department of Computer Engineering (2018)
This thesis study proposes an environment that provides an interactive virtual reality experience for individuals about the tasks of software development process starting from requirement analysis through software testing. The environment transports participants to the virtual world of a software development organization where they experience development problems. In this environment, the participant takes on the role of a novice software developer being recruited into a virtual software development organiz...
A physically based facial skin model to simulate facial expressions on digitally scanned 3D models
AKAGUNDUZ, Erdem; ULUSOY PARNAS, İLKAY; BOZKURT, Nesli; Halıcı, Uğur (2007-11-09)
In this paper we present a physically-based 3D facial skin model based on biomechanical properties of human facial anatomy. The skin model is mainly formed of two DNURBS surfaces as a two layered membrane structure. The model represents the soft tissue layer which covers the skull and is attached to the skull via muscle insertion points. The model is fitted on digitally scanned 3D facial surfaces and controlled via DNURBS control points, which are spatially close to muscle insertion points. The face (skin m...
A 3D topological tracking system for augmented reality
Ercan, Münir; Can, Tolga; Department of Computer Engineering (2010)
Augmented Reality (AR) has become a popular area in computer Science where research studies and technological innovations are extensive. Research in AR first began in the early 1990s and thenceforth, a number of di erent tracking algorithms and methods have been developed. Tracking systems have a critical importance for AR and marker based vision tracking systems became the mostly used tracking systems due to their low cost and ease of use. Basically, marker systems consist of special patterns that are plac...
