 The VIRTALIS booth at the European PTC World events in Copenhagen, Denmark, on 14th November and at the Heritage Motor Centre, Gaydon, Warwickshire, UK on 18th November will be different from all other previous Virtalis exhibition displays. One will feature full tracking, enabling those viewing the stereoscopic 3D models to get a greater sense of reality. Not only will their view of the model alter according to their own movements in front of the screen but they will also be able to reach out and touch the data.

 THE FASCINATING world of haptics, or virtual touch, is something that Virtalis has successfully integrated into its advanced visualisation systems over the last decade. Haption is a leading haptics company, all of whose products provide force feedback on all six degrees of freedom (6 dof). This enables the life like simulation of interaction between two 3D virtual objects, giving the users realistic, real-time force feedback akin to the sensation of touch.

 Virtalis' big stand at this year's PTC User in Long Beach, California proved to be a big draw at the show. We were showing impressive new 3D images of a John Deere 844 4WD Loader. The data for these images looked so sharp and lifelike thanks to PTC's Mock Up software.
Several vistors to the busy booth remarked that the Virtalis display made it both the best stand at PTC User and also the most interesting.
A prize draw for a digital photo frame was held and this was won by Mr Paul Huninghake, CAD Engineering Specialist at NAACO Materials Handling Group.
After such a successful time at PTC User the Virtalis salesteam vows to be back next year with an even better display. |
