Motion Capture for Assembly Simulation
A solution by: HAPTION
Application domain: Product Synthesis
Solution Overview
Motion Capture for Assembly Simulation is part of the new IV6 system, and is a dedicated focus on interactive Assembly and Maintenance Simulation within 3D Experience software. More than creating physics in your environment, it will also allow you to make use of haptic devices (Virtuose, Inca, Able) right in your working environment.
IV6’s main asset comes from its realistic gesture of body physics, based on Haption’s latest physic simulation technology: IPSI. This add-on provides you with the capabilities to manage interaction between devices and set their properties, while still allowing you to use every base function of 3DEXPERIENCE. You will be able to experience gravity, feel contact forces, record object motion in tracks, and have a precision up to sub-millimeters level in your very own virtual environment, just a click away from your session. Recreating environments conform to the reality is therefore really simple, and will allow you to do maintenance and assembly studies long before the product is created.
The integration of haptic devices straight into the software will allow you a deep interaction using 6DOF force feedback devices, such as our Virtuose, Inca or Able devices. More than touching the objects, you will feel them: collision on forces and torques, weight capacities, you will have the sensation your 3D mockup is finally in your room.
The simulation’s high performance will allow you to invite your operators from the workshop to ask for their feedback on your simulation, letting you the opportunity to adjust your mockup. You will also be able to provide training, either by giving a freedom into the virtual environment or by applying a certain guidance in the manipulation of the tools.
Motion Capture for Assembly Simulation works with any kind of data from 3DEXPERIENCE – there is no need of conversion to make it work.
Benefits
- Highly realstic rigid-body physics simulation
- Enhanced experience by using haptic devices while all basic functions are maintained
- Easy simulation management
- No data conversion
