“…Bal and Hashemipour [1] put forward a VR-based concept for enhancing the design and implementation process of holonic control systems in manufacturing practice. The virtual factory, containing buffers, machines and material handling systems, integrates VR-based modeling into an agent platform in order to realize the holonic manufacturing control within a discrete event simulation environment (see Figure 2).…”

The paper outlines the methodology of virtual design of a foundry plant as a system. The most important stage in the procedure involves the development of a model defined as a set of data about the system. Model development involves two stages: defining the model's architecture and specifying the model data in the form of parameters and input-output relationships. The structure is understood as configuration of machines and transport units, representing the sub-systems and system components. As the main purpose of the simulation procedure is to find the characteristics of the system's behaviour, the merits of the iterative method involving analysis, synthesis and evaluation of results are fully explored.

“…VR is a good example of such a visualization technology since it provides a three dimensional realistic environment to provide a sense of reality and the impression of 'being there'. VR has been widely referred and used in industrial applications [31], [32].…”

The system is based on a modified radio-location fingerprinting algorithm and it uses inexpensive, programmable wireless embedded platforms operating in a ZigBee wireless network protocol. The main emphasis of this study is on the ability to estimate the location of mobile wireless nodes in 3-D indoor spaces, without any costly infrastructure. The wireless nodes have been deployed in an experimental test bed, for location tracking and motion estimation. A K-nearest neighbor algorithm has been implemented for location estimation over a set of radio location fingerprints collected in a 3-D space. A 3-D visualization interface has been developed in VRML in order to display the real-time sensor positions and the data in the 3-D world. Preliminary experimental results show that the proposed scheme can achieve accurate and stable location tracking in indoor environments.
