  • Simulation (Cybernetic Systems)
DEF

A head-supported functional unit that includes a stereoscopic display device, position and orientation captors, and earphones.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Simulation (Systèmes cybernétiques)
DEF

Unité fonctionnelle portée sur la tête et comprenant un dispositif d'affichage stéréoscopique, des capteurs de position et d'orientation et des écouteurs.

CONT

[…] la RV [réalité virtuelle] en contexte 3D [tridimensionnel] suppose forcément une technologie avancée. En effet, le matériel usité doit être constitué d'une station de travail […], d'éléments de restitution et de saisie : casque de vision stéréoscopique ou visiocasque (en anglais HMD pour «head mounted display») qui restituent fidèlement des images comportant l'effet stéréoscopique de la vue binoculaire.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Simulación (Sistemas cibernéticos)
DEF

Conjunto de dispositivos montados en una especie de anteojos o en un casco sobre la cabeza, provistos de diminutos monitores […] en cada ojo, que generan imágenes ligeramente diferentes para dar al observador sensación de visión esteroscópica.

CONT

Sobre los ojos, dos pantallas de cristal líquido montadas en un casco de visualización permiten que las imágenes de síntesis varíen en perfecta sincronización con el movimiento del usuario.

CONT

[El] primer sistema requería de una gran cantidad de componentes que el usuario debía "cargar" […], un ordenador montado en una mochila junto con una batería, una antena para la recepción de señal GPS [sistema de posicionamiento mundial] y un casco de visualización (HMD). Sin embargo, aunque aparatoso, es un ejemplo perfecto de cómo la realidad aumentada puede aplicarse al campo de la construcción para dar información de estructuras ya construidas.

Record 7 1998-10-07

English

Subject field(s)
  • Internet and Telematics
  • Testing and Debugging
CONT

In an holonic manufacturing system (HMS), key elements such as machines, work centers, plants, parts, products, persons, departments, or divisions have autonomous and cooperative properties. These elements are called "holons", a word coined by combining "holos" (the whole) and "on" (a particle) ... In an HMS, each holon's activities are determined through the cooperation with other holons, as opposed to being determined by a centralized mechanism. An HMS could therefore enjoy high agility, which is an important characteristic for future manufacturing systems.
