Joint Platform for the Real-Scale 3D Visualization of Conceptual Design Incorporating Semantic

Abstract

The need for a collaborative approach that can easily manifest the basic ideas into a semantic enriched Virtual Environment is felt. To realize the same, a clear combination of two individual processes is applied. Beginning with the manipulation and semantic addition to 2-Dimensional geometric shapes, a concise 3D model is generated. The latter serves as an input to a much interactive system, e.g., a CAVE, for better visualization and interaction with the model. The idea became completed by joining table-touch and real-scale 3D visualization system. However, on question remained unknown ``what is the effect of this kind of visualization on an end-user?'' This paper tries to find out an appropriate answer to the question only in terms of gender difference. The results show significant difference between female and male populations.
