3D Gear is a powerful graphics toolkit for rapid integration of visualization into your existing application or creation of a new standalone 3D environment. Develop high quality scenes with reduced development time and costs. Track objects within your virtual 3D scenes in real-time.
 Use this library to build real-time, mission planning, and simulation solutions in:
ROV/AUV/UUV
Pipeline
Trenching
Survey
Dynamic Positioning
Cable Laying
|
|
Import 3D terrain data from NOAA, electronic chart data, multi-beam data or ASCII points
The multi-resolution grid engine allows large terrain areas to be rendered without degrading performance
Texture mapping enhances realism
Multiple surfaces for terrain can be viewed in the same scene
Update terrain models in real-time
|
|
Place user-defined 3D objects (platforms, manifolds, ROV's) into the scene
Common file formats supported for import of 3D object files (3ds, dwg, obj, vrml)
Object manager makes it easy to manipulate objects (size, scale and position/orientation)
|
|
Multiple cameras and views
Camera manipulation support for common input devices (joystick, mouse, spaceball, head mounted displays)
User controlled camera position is independent of object position
Light Source management
Use actual, real-time sensor data to position objects within the scene
Control levels of scene visibility
Actual instrument readings (dials and gauges) on screen
Winch and cage status monitoring on screen
Simulated position data can be used in training or rehearsal applications
|
|
Collision avoidance with automatic alarms
Use actual, real-time, multi-sensor data to position objects within the scene
Simultaneously track multiple objects
Dynamically visualize position, pitch, roll, heading, and other attributes
|
|
 Lighting manager allows multiple light sources
Real-time video signal can be incorporated into the application
Actual instrumentation readings can be integrated on screen
Alarms based on user criteria
3D scenes and object locations can be stored as historical records with playback capabilities
Integrates with DB Gear to acquire information from distributed databases
Integrates with Net Gear to acquire data from remote sensors in near real-time
