Abstract :
Reports the application of visual functions and data-glove input of virtual reality (VR) technology to a process planning system based on form feature modeling. The system proposed applied VR technology and connects organically the computer with the human beings. It is noticed that an operator can treat objects in a virtual 3-dimensional (3D) spaces with his hands while watching them with his eyes. The form features are directly modeled and applied to process planning with reality, by real-time feedback
