Abstract :
Aimed at improving the design process of machine tools using virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) systems, the Institute for Machine Tools and Production Processes (IWP) of Chemnitz University of Technology has developed new visualization methods for studying finite elements analysis (FEA) results in immersive environments along with a mobile AR system. The Institute´s major goal on the software side was visualizing the direction and gradient of stress using 3D glyphs.
