Virtalis installs immersive visualisation suite

A Virtalis product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Nov 9, 2009

Virtalis has designed and installed an immersive visualisation suite at Case New Holland (CNH) in Modena, Italy.

The Virtalis Stereoworks configuration at CNH Modena includes a rear-projected, single-channel active stereoscopic-projection wall that allows the large machines that CNH manufactures to drive out of the wall in full, stereoscopic 3D.

The Christie Mirage S+14k DLP projector projects onto a 5.6 x 4.2m, flexible Stewart screen.

Virtalis designed a tailored Intersense IS900 tracking system so that natural movement around the virtual models was maximised.

CNH Modena's engineers wear CrystalEyes CE-3 stereoscopic LCD shutter glasses or NuVision's Cinema Glasses, depending on whether they are interacting with the model or not.

As the virtual models CNH creates have upwards of 20,000 parts, compute power and graphics rendering capability are vital.

The Modena system features a 64-bit, quad-core workstation coupled with an NVIDIA FX5600 graphics card.
