Simulation of an Historical Building Using a Tablet MR System

  • Conference paper
Computer-Aided Architectural Design Futures (CAADFutures) 2007

To depict characteristics of historical buildings, digital archives must display visual information about structures and their construction. This study defines the components used for threedimensional (3D) models of framework construction. Framework construction has heretofore portrayed structures through animation using VHS or Hi-Vision video. This paper describes a method to facilitate exhibition through interactive simulation using animation and real-time images. Furthermore, a Tablet MR can be used as an effective simulation tool for studying historical buildings in on-site models. For education about historical wooden-framework archi- tecture, increased interactive potential according to users’ needs will be increasingly necessary.
