An immersive assembly and maintenance simulation environment
Presentation / Conference
Fernando, T., & Murray, N. An immersive assembly and maintenance simulation environment. Presented at 8th IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Distributed Simulation and Real Time Applications, Budapest, Hungary

This paper outlines the development of a virtual environment for constraint based assembly and maintenance task simulation and analysis of large scale mechanical products. It is important that allowance is made for maintenance activities during a pro... Read More about An immersive assembly and maintenance simulation environment.
