“…To overcome such problems, much attention has been paid to the virtual reality (VR) simulator, which has been recognized as a strong tool in the car industry [2][3][4] , airplane industry 5) , and medicine [6][7][8][9][10][11] . Haptic devices that make users feel force feedbacks are useful for acquiring hand skill efficiently in VR environments 12,13) .…”

The virtual reality (VR) simulator is a useful tool to develop dental hand skill. However, VR simulations with reactions of patients have limited computational time to reproduce a face model. Our aim was to develop a patient face model that enables real-time collision detection and cutting operation by using stereolithography (STL) and deterministic finite automaton (DFA) data files. We evaluated dependence of computational cost and constructed the patient face model using the optimum condition for combining STL and DFA data files, and assessed the computational costs for operation in do-nothing, collision, cutting, and combination of collision and cutting. The face model was successfully constructed with low computational costs of 11.3, 18.3, 30.3, and 33.5 ms for do-nothing, collision, cutting, and collision and cutting, respectively. The patient face model could be useful for developing dental hand skill with VR.

“…Since the complexity of many of these simulation systems usually make them very expensive, in recent years, there has been a renewed interest in low-cost vehicle simulators [10,36,37], so that effective but inexpensive vehicle simulation systems can be designed and implemented. Unfortunately, the analysis of the cost of these systems is something rarely done in the academic community and it is usually left for the simulation industry.…”

“…A great deal of vehicle simulators, with different setups, for many different vehicle types have been proposed: planes [9][10][11][12], helicopters [13][14][15], cars [16][17][18], motorcycles [19][20][21], trucks [22], tractors [23], sail ships [24], engine-based ships/boats [25][26][27][28], bicycles [29,30], or even tricycles [31]. Some of them include multimodal perceptual cues and realistic interaction systems.…”

Vehicle simulators are multimodal interactive applications used in many human activities with different purposes. However, they are sometimes expensive systems that need to be carefully studied before they are designed and built, since some simulators can actually be much more expensive than the simulated vehicle. This is an important issue, although it is sometimes overlooked in scientific research. This paper proposes four different setups (with a variety of visual, sound, motion generation, and user-input interfaces) for non-aerial vehicle simulation, using a speedboat simulator as a case study. These setups are analysed in terms of their cost and their effectiveness is discussed. Rough figures are provided to give a comparative insight into the economic order of magnitude necessary to design and build a vehicle simulator.
