Inertactive Physics Pack (IPP)
Based on Haption's physics simulation technology IPSI, IPP is a set of Virtools Building Blocks that allow the user to create and play a real-time 3D application with haptic interaction. Interactive Physics Pack is an add-on library for Virtools Dev 3.5. This add-on consists of 18 new building blocks.
3D real-time interactive physics experience
IPP lets you :
- Connect to the IPSI server
- Manage the simulation: start, stop, pause, resume
- Manage the type of device: with force-feedback Haption Virtuose and Inca and without force-feedback 6D USB mouse from 3DConnexion and Optical Tracking from ART.
- Manage the collision process: attach and detach 3D objects to the manipulation device...
Load 3D objects
IPP integrates a building block called "physicalize", which creates persistent data needed by the collision detection process.
Data can be stored on files for fast reloading of the simulation experience.
IPP can physicalize any type of 3D data compatible with Virtools (see Virtools for the type of Data).
Kinematics constraint
IPP provides kinematic constraints between object or between one object and the world: Prismatic, plane, translation, hinge, ball-and-socket, etc.
