Virtual reality aircraft cockpit system with force/haptic feedback

Abstract

The invention discloses a virtual reality aircraft cockpit system with force / haptic feedback, namely, a flight simulator which uses a helmet mounted display, a motion tracking sensor and a force / haptic feedback system to replace a physical cockpit and a control mechanism of a conventional flight simulator and takes a virtual reality technology as a man-machine interaction mode. The virtual reality aircraft cockpit system is composed of computers and corresponding virtual reality interface equipment, adopts a network based distributed structure and takes the computers as a computing nodes, and different computing nodes perform communication through the network; motion data is acquired through the motion tracking sensor, the helmet-mounted display is taken as visual feedback equipment to output a virtual scene, and the force / haptic feedback system provides real force / haptic feedback for a user. Compared with the traditional flight simulator, the virtual reality aircraft cockpit system is small in size and low in cost, has high flexibility in structure and function, and can realize good force / haptic feedback experience, so that better immersion and interactivity are acquired.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of virtual reality, in particular to the field of virtual simulation aircraft cockpit, and is a virtual reality aircraft cockpit system with force / tactile feedback. Background technique [0002] Flight simulator is the main tool for training pilots, which can shorten the training cycle, reduce training costs and improve training safety. Therefore, the research on flight simulator is of great significance. [0003] Traditional full-mission flight simulators use large-screen projections and a 1:1 physical cockpit. The equipment in the cabin (such as control panels, control mechanisms, etc.) uses real objects that are consistent with the size and shape of the real cockpit, and pilots can directly control them. This type of flight simulator has powerful functions and high fidelity, but it is bulky and complex in structure, and different types of aircraft need to be equipped with different simulators. [0004] The virtua...

Problems solved by technology

This solution can simplify the control panel and the operating mechanism, and can simulate different types of control panels by changing the software, but the mechanical system is still large in size, and the movement range of the control is a plane, which cannot realize the interaction in three-dimensional space
