Semi-Structured Visual Design of Complex Industrial 3D Training Scenes

Abstract. Designing high-quality interactive 3D spaces, such as those required for professional training, is a complex, expensive and time consuming task. Although many approaches have been designed to simplify the process, the result is always a trade-off between advanced capabilities and the ease of use of the content creation tool. To achieve high visual quality of the modeling results, no simplification of the geometry detail level is possible. In this paper, we propose a method of visual content design, which simplifies the process by eliminating some of the structural complexity through introduction of content controllers, which based on the known semantics of content objects impose specific structure of their sub-components, thus simplifying and speeding up the content creation process as well as eliminating common mistakes.
