Collaborative VR Workstation for Design and Modification

Develop a tele-collaborative design environment for mechanical and geometrical parts, allowing designers, managers, and manufacturers from different continents to jointly inspect, annotate, and modify designs. The Collaborative VR Workstation provides a haptic, immersive workspace for telecollaborative design across the internet, enabling users to see in 3D, touch, feel, annotate, modify, share, and discuss designs.

  1. CITRIS -- BID Collaborative Design Environments Sara McMains, Carlo Séquin, Paul Wright Development of a tele-collaborative designand re-design environment for mechanicaland geometrical parts. Allows designers, managers, manufacturers,located on different continents, to jointlyinspect, annotate, and modify a design.

  2. Collaborative VR Workstation A haptic, immersive work space for telecollaborative design across the internet See in 3D, Touch, feel, Annotate, Modify, Share, Discuss …

  3. Collaborative VR Workstation A student interacting with a Ford Explorer model displayed on the workstation (simulated 3D effect showing the part where the user perceives it to be).

  4. Model Annotation Drawing on a virtual bunny with a brush tool with haptic force-feedback.

  5. Séquin’s Research Interests (1)with Paul Wright (ME) Physical Rapid Prototypes: • For early user testing, • and hands-on feedback • in application context. Zcorp 3D-printer FDM

  6. Research Projects (2) with Paul Wright Vague Idea Concept Mock-up CAD Model Proc.Plan, CNC File Prototype Part Commercial Product Design for Manufacturability, including Rapid Prototyping, and Injection-Mold Making. • Speeding up “Art to Part”(or actually: “Inspiration to Income”) • “Manufacturing-aware” CAD tools.(show limitations of fabrication process during all design phases.)

  7. Séquin’s Research Interests (cont.) CAD tools for Ideation, Informal Prototyping: • Mimick the best of: clay, wire, paper, scotch-tape, styrofoam … • Without the adversity of: messy glue, gravity, strength limits … • Make available pseudo-physical materials that bend as nicely as steel wire, and stretch like a nylon hose, but are strong as titanium, and as transparent as quartz …

  8. Séquin’s Research Interests (4) Continue to explore the“Art-Math” connection …
