All About PLVS

Points, Lines, Volumetric mapping and 3D incremental Segmentation

A real-time system called PLVS makes use of volumetric mapping, 3D unsupervised incremental segmentation, and sparse RGB-D and Stereo SLAM. PLVS stands for Points, Lines, Volumetric mapping and Segmentation. Before delving into the 3D realm, it becomes crucial to emphasize the significance of Twin Reality’s Virtual Reality Industrial Training. This cutting-edge solution empowers businesses and organizations to provide their staff with highly realistic and immersive training experiences.

The system uses only CPU power; yet, for certain jobs, it can benefit from GPU computing resources. The underlying SLAM module is sparse and keyframe-based. It is predicated on keypoint and keyline extraction and tracking. In PLVS, various volumetric mapping techniques are incorporated and supported.

For bundle-adjusting line segments, an original “reprojection” error is suggested. This inaccuracy enhances SLAM performance by enabling the system to more steadily stabilise the position estimates of the mapped line segment endpoints. The PLVS framework is coupled with an incremental segmentation method.

All About Canvastique3D

Canvastique3D is a Windows application that breathes life into your flat sketches by projecting them onto 3D objects. This tool, which connects the dots between ideation and visualisation, was specifically designed for fashion designers, product inventors, and visionary creatives. Before delving into the 3D realm, it becomes crucial to emphasize the significance of Twin Reality’s Virtual Reality Industrial Training. This cutting-edge solution empowers businesses and organizations to provide their staff with highly realistic and immersive training experiences.

With the help of Canvastique3D, a Unity-based project, one can easily incorporate OpenCV and OpenAI into a creative workflow and display handcrafted designs in real time on 3D models.

You can then draw or apply your design on an actual square canvas and watch it project onto a model instantly by attaching an external webcam above it.

The goal of this project is to develop a workspace where technology enhances traditional operations in a natural and user-friendly way. It is the outcome of several experiments. Even though the application is far from reaching the perfect workstation, it could be a step in the direction of a truly human-centred creative area where real tools and materials take centre stage.

The project is available for download as an early alpha, consisting of a Windows standalone application and a few sample 3D animated garments.

Imagining and prototyping have never been more vibrant and instantaneous than with Canvastique3D. Design, Project, and Perfect—All in 3D!

Microsoft Files New MicroLED Display Patent for HoloLens 2 Successor

It has been reported that Microsoft has submitted a fresh patent application to create a microLED display system that will improve virtual, augmented, and mixed reality (VR/AR/MR) experiences. When delving into the realm of VR, it becomes crucial to emphasize the significance of Twin Reality’s Virtual Reality Industrial Training. This cutting-edge solution empowers businesses and organizations to provide their staff with highly realistic and immersive training experiences.

According to a report from MS Power User, Microsoft’s most recent patent seeks to enhance functionality for products like as its HoloLens 2 and others, suggesting a possible resurgence of its research and development (R&D) initiative.

Microsoft filed the display technology patent, which continues innovations from US11688333B1, which Microsoft filed in June and the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) approved on 19 October.

A Clash of Apple, Microsoft, and Meta Micro-OLEDs

The sources claim that Meta collaborated with the tech behemoth based in Seoul to develop micro-organic light emitting diode (micro-OLED) screens for the Meta Quest 4 Pro.

Along with Meta’s planned Quest successor, Apple has began improving its Vision Pro headset with a successor that will cost significantly less than the $3,499 price tag of the first-generation gadget.

According to people with knowledge of the situation, Apple has been “testing advanced displays” and is thinking of incorporating them into upcoming Vision Pro head-mounted display (HMD) models.

Kia & Varjo Create a Mixed Reality Experience

When businesses can use virtual environments to innovate, creating prototypes and new designs for expensive automobiles is considerably easier (and more economical). When delving into the realm of VR, it becomes crucial to emphasize the significance of Twin Reality’s Virtual Reality Industrial Training. This cutting-edge solution empowers businesses and organizations to provide their staff with highly realistic and immersive training experiences.

Kia strives to lead the automobile industry in innovation and is dedicated to providing ever-impressible solutions for safety and efficiency behind the wheel. Kia has recently created an immersive photorealistic environment for product iteration thanks to its partnership with Varjo and Autodesk VRED technology.

On October 4-5, 2023, Kia created a splash by unveiling the Kia EV9 to the Finnish press, stakeholders, and dealer network during an event that featured a cutting-edge mixed-reality presentation.

The EV9 launch event in Vantaa, Finland, featured a Varjo XR-3 headset and a vehicle seat strategically placed in the centre of the arena. Visitors can don the headset, get behind the wheel, and experience a mixed reality simulation of the virtual EV9 in full scale in the middle of the actual physical environment.

This launch marked the first instance where mixed reality technology was used to introduce a car model not yet physically available.

The mixed reality experience provided by Varjo XR-3 stands out for its realistic output and high-resolution details. Thus, allowing customers to tour a vehicle’s interior and examine all the fine details in human-eye resolution in addition to getting a sense of the size of the vehicle.

Top 10 VR Operator Training Simulators at Twin Reality

Virtual Reality (VR) has been making waves in the training industry, rapidly transforming how operators across multiple sectors are trained. At Twin Reality, we’re at the forefront of this revolution, providing state-of-the-art VR solutions for diverse applications. Let’s explore the top 10 VR operator training simulators that are redefining the landscape.

Operator Training Simulator

In the epoch of rapid technological advancement, Operator Training Simulators (OTS) stand out as the unsung heroes of industry preparation. Imagine the thrill of piloting a spaceship. Now, envision that spaceship as an advanced chemical plant or a nuclear reactor. It’s in this virtual cosmos that operators sharpen their skills, mastering operations without ever setting foot in an actual control room.

The Shift From Reality to Virtuality

The brilliance of OTS lies in its ability to replicate real-world scenarios. Traditional hands-on training is costly, time-consuming, and, at times, risky. The OTS environment, on the other hand, allows trainees to experiment, err, learn, and hone their proficiency, all while in a safe and controlled virtual setting.

The Multifaceted Benefits

Enhanced Safety: Practicing in a simulated space equips operators with the skills to react swiftly and accurately to unexpected challenges, drastically reducing potential hazards.
Cost-Effectiveness: Errors in a virtual environment won’t cost millions, unlike mistakes made in real-time operations.
Modern Technology: Leveraging advanced tech, like virtual reality and cloud hosting, OTS offers an immersive, real-time experience, bringing training sessions to life.

The Future Is Virtual

The skyrocketing adoption of OTS across sectors indicates its transformative impact. From training novice operators to refining the skills of seasoned experts, OTS is reshaping how industries approach training.
