VR Objects and Simulations An introduction to using VR objects in simulations

VR Objects and Simulations

A Datamine eLearning course is available that covers functions described in this topic. Contact your local Datamine office for more details.

 

"VR Objects" can be used to simulate movement within a particular environment or scenario e.g. a dump truck traveling along a defined haul route, flying along an imaginary path to view geological data or a mine design. These simulations can be done using one of the following general methods:

• Driving a mobile object along a wireframe surface

• Flying through the active 3D window without a predefined path

• Attaching and moving a mobile object(s) along an imported or digitized path (alignment string).

For information on how to define a mobile object see:

• Mobile objects

For information on how to import or digitize strings see:

• Importing strings

• Import 2D strings and fit to a 3D surface

• Digitize strings directly onto surfaces

For information on how to attach objects to strings see:

• Attaching objects to strings

For information on how to start the simulation see the help topics under:

• Creating a simulation
