Vehicle Simulation

Perceptual Fidelity in the Design of Virtual Environments

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book covers the problem of fidelity in the design of virtual environments with specific reference to the design of vehicle simulators. The default design goal has been on the physical replication of a given real-world environment and, in the case of vehicles, the specific appearance and function of vehicle components.
