Simulation and Modeling Applications

The important needs of training, exposure, and adoption of specific skills and operating procedures in a safe and cost-effective way strongly encourage the use of virtual environments. A critical component in such environments is interactive control of events and objects that are presented to a trainee. In this paper, we present a platform named the Interactive Scene Control Environment that is composed of trainee and trainer supervision parts. The trainer supervision part enables interactive control of placement and behavior of the objects inserted in the trainees’ scene. The overall system architecture for such a platform is developed and a mechanism for scenario definition is proposed.
