Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of visualization technology application, and in particular to a Unity-based 3D interactive visualization technology and a production method. Background Art

[0002] At present, the visualization method for product construction and assembly processes is mainly based on the video form of 3D process animation, which has largely solved the problem of visualization conversion of 2D processes. However, the visual process images in the form of videos have a fixed perspective and are essentially still based on the information transmission of 2D pictures. The content coverage is not three-dimensional enough, and the quality and effect of visualization are overly dependent on the designer's thinking mode.

[0003] At the same time, SolidWorks Composer from Dassault, France, provides a 3D interactive viewing function based on CAD models, but it requires the installation of the corresponding SolidWorks Composer Player to view it. The scene rendering quality is low, the model material is not realistic enough, and the industrial style is strong. In addition, due to CAD model format issues, the software operation is stuck when the model data volume is too large, and it is difficult to design and output normally. It is only suitable for the assembly process visualization of small products. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, one object of the present invention is to provide a 3D interactive visualization process and a production method based on Unity.

[0005] The solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is: A 3D interactive visualization process and production method based on Unity, which is developed through Unity to complete the four basic functional modules of animation reading, animation control, perspective control, and integrated output, and integrate them into a universal application; design and produce three-dimensional process animation, convert it into FBX format, import it into a universal application, and finally output an integrated exe file; thereby realizing the 3D interactive visualization process and production based on Unity; The steps include: The first step is to develop a program to read the FBX format animation function in Unity, read the Animator Controller controller of the FBX format model, and extract the animation information; The second step is to develop the animation control function program in Unity to realize the control of animation play, pause, and fast forward; The third step is to develop the view control function program in Unity to achieve the zeroing of the model's absolute coordinates, the initialization of the view, the centering of the screen to maximize the display, and the view control of rotation, movement, and scaling; The fourth step is to develop an integrated output function program in Unity, including packaging the environment, resource calling functions, and exe publishing output; ultimately forming a universal application; Step 5: Use 3D art design software to create 3D process animation, convert it to FBX format, and uncheck the options of lights, cameras, and normals; The sixth step is to import the FBX format process animation file into a universal application and publish it as a self-extracting exe integrated format.

[0006] In order to further solve the technical problem to be solved by the present invention, in the development of the FBX format animation reading function program provided by the present invention, the FBX format animation reading function program development includes but is not limited to animation reading, animation control, perspective control and integrated output. Depending on the actual object, the development process division, temporary material replacement, BOM form statistics and other functions can also be expanded.

[0007] Furthermore, the animation reading is performed by mounting the Animator Controller controller of the FBX format animation file through Unity's own function.

[0008] Furthermore, the animation control refers to the control of animation play, pause, and fast forward.

[0009] Furthermore, the viewing angle control refers to the manipulation of scene initialization settings and scene translation, rotation, and scaling.

[0010] Furthermore, the integrated output refers to packaging the prefabricated program environment and animation resources of the 3D interactive visualization process into a whole, and outputting them in a self-extracting exe format.

[0011] Positive effect: Since the present invention develops specific functional modules through Unity and integrates them into a general application, based on the import and export of three-dimensional process animation, 3D interaction and batch output of visualized process animation are realized, without repetitive program development work. At the same time, with the help of Unity's own real-time rendering mode and application publishing function, the authenticity of the scene and the smoothness of operation are enhanced; the integrated output in the self-extracting exe format is more convenient for transmission and promotion; the realization of 3D interactive function enhances the three-dimensional expression of process information, with richer details, and gives the initiative to users, maximizing the reduction of the restrictions of the designer's thinking mode on information transmission. It is suitable as a 3D interactive visualization process and production method based on Unity. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Use Unity's own Add Component function to mount the Animator Controller component of the FBX format animation model to read the animation information.

[0016] Step 2: Build the animation control function. Use Unity's built-in Play function to play the animation, and use the Speed ​​function to pause the animation and control the playback speed.

[0017] Step 3: Build the view control function. Create a new empty object (0,0,0) in the Unity scene to load the imported FBX format animation model. Calculate the relative position of the empty object and the loaded model through the program, and move the imported FBX format animation model to the world coordinate (0,0,0) position, so that the absolute coordinates of the model are reset to zero. Determine the size boundary of the model through Unity's Mesh Render function, calculate and control the camera position and field of view through the program, so that the model is centered and maximized, thereby realizing the initial setting of the view. Identify keyboard and mouse input information, call the corresponding Transform function to control the camera position, rotation, and scaling, and realize interactive operations of 3D perspective.

[0018] Step 4: Build an integrated output function. Package all necessary functions except the model to form a prefabricated program environment. Set the storage location of resources (models, materials), develop a calling program, and have the ability to automatically call resources into the prefabricated program environment. Call the WinRAR compression program through the program, and preset the option settings of the WinRAR compression program through the script, check the option to create a self-extracting compressed file, and in the advanced option self-extracting option settings, specify the program to be run after decompression, and select the silent mode mode to hide all. The above operations realize the integrated output of the file in the self-extracting format. Finally, all functional modules are integrated and published as a universal application.

[0019] Step 5: Optimize the model, use 3D art design software to create 3D process animation, convert it to FBX format, and uncheck the options of lights, cameras, and normals.

[0020] Step 6: Import the FBX format process animation file into a universal application and publish it as a self-extracting exe integrated format.

[0021] Features of the present invention: The present invention develops 3D interactive function programs through Unity, integrates to form a universal application, imports three-dimensional process animation into the universal application, and outputs it as a self-extracting exe file, realizing the 3D interactive function and integrated output of the visualization process.
