DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiment of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiment of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit exemplary embodiments according to the present invention. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0022] In some embodiments of the present invention, a design method for a driller's room simulation system based on virtual reality is provided. The method establishes simulation models of various facilities in the driller's room and the drill table through virtual reality technology, simulating the working environment in the driller's room under various conditions; at the same time, it meets the ergonomic design of the driller's room, and gradually provides a reference for the manufacture of a real driller's room in combination with the comfort and safety experienced by the operator.

[0023] Correspondingly, in some other embodiments of the present invention, a driller's room simulation system based on virtual reality is provided.

[0024] Example 1 like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a design method for a driller room simulation system based on virtual reality, which comprises the following steps: (1) Collect relevant information about the driller's room; (2) Using the collected driller room data, a 3D model of the second deck of the offshore drilling platform and the driller room based on ergonomic design was established; (3) Add a working environment to the 3D model of the driller's room and render the scene to simulate the working environment of the driller's room; (4) Using third-party steamVR software and corresponding VR equipment, a driller's room VR simulation system is established based on the driller's room 3D model; (5) Use VR equipment to test the driller's room VR simulation system, and optimize and improve the driller's room VR simulation system and operation methods based on the test feedback information.

[0025] Furthermore, in the above step (1), relevant information of the driller's room is collected, including: Organize and collect domestic and foreign information on the layout and functions of the driller's room; Sort out the workflow of each device (such as chairs) and system in the driller's room; Sort out the control logic of the touch screen control interface in the driller's room.

[0026] Furthermore, in the above step (2), when establishing the 3D model of the second deck platform of the offshore drilling, Unity3D software is used. The 3D model of the driller's room includes the driller's room, the driller's chair, and the equipment that needs to appear on the drilling table, and appropriate materials and textures need to be produced and added for each equipment.

[0027] Specifically, the steps include: (2.1) Create a 3D model of the driller's room based on the collected drawings, models and other reference materials (if it is made using an existing engineering model, this step uses high-polygon reduction topology to create a model that can be used in Unity3D); (2.2) UV unfold the created 3D model of the driller's room; (2.3) Make texture maps, including base color, AO, normal, roughness and other multi-channel texture maps; (2.4) Import Unity to adjust and optimize the effects and set the lighting. If animation is required, you can make the model animation in this step.

[0028] In this embodiment, in addition to expressing the material through conventional basic colors, the influence of light on the model is increased to simulate different material expressions under the lighting effects of different environments, making the picture more realistic.

[0029] Furthermore, in the above step (3), adding a working environment to the driller's room 3D model means using Unity3D software to add a weather system, ground and surrounding environment to the driller's room 3D model. The weather system can simulate several common weather types in reality: sunny, cloudy, rainy, snowy, etc., and has a day and night change effect, which can simulate the light that passes over 24 hours a day.

[0030] Furthermore, in the above step (4), the VR device environment is configured in the Unity3D software using the steamVR software, and a driller's room VR simulation system is established based on the driller's room 3D model.

[0031] In this embodiment, the driller room VR simulation system enables users to experience the working environment in the driller room in a safe manner, and learn the structure of each device in the driller room without leaving home. Users can freely explore inside. They can also interact on the virtual driller chair as if they were in a real driller room.

[0032] Specifically, Figure 2 to Figure 5 As shown, the driller room VR simulation system is equipped with a scene roaming module, an environment transformation module and an operation experience module. The scene roaming module allows users to select different driller room scenes through a handle, and observe the driller room scenes from different perspectives through a VR head-mounted display; the environment transformation module allows users to select different driller room working environments through a handle, so that users can experience working environments in different environments; the operation experience module allows users to simulate the operation experience of various equipment in the driller room.

[0033] Furthermore, the scene roaming module includes a scene selection module and a perspective switching module. The scene selection module is used for users to select different driller room scenes using a handle according to actual needs. Models of control cabinets or precision equipment are respectively established in each driller room scene, which is convenient for users to observe the internal structure of each control cabinet or equipment, which is extremely convenient for visits and teaching; the perspective switching module is used for users to switch the observation perspective through the handle, so that users can observe the driller room structure, the internal structure of the equipment and the surrounding environment of the driller room from multiple angles, and even observe the layout of the entire driller room from above by adjusting the height of the perspective.

[0034] Furthermore, the environment transformation module includes an environment setting module and an environment rendering module. The environment setting module is used by the user to change the current time and weather at any time through the handle to simulate a variety of working environments; the environment rendering module is used to render the working environment in the driller's room according to the environmental parameters set by the user, so that the user can experience the working environment in different environments, provide timely feedback on the facilities and comfort in the driller's room design, optimize the humanized design of the driller's room, and thus save the cost of manufacturing the driller's room.

[0035] Furthermore, the operation experience module is provided with a touch screen control interface, a driller chair simulation module, an equipment interaction simulation module and a drilling rig operation simulation module. Among them, the touch screen control interface is used for users to experience human-computer interaction, such as viewing the basic jumps of the drilling rig control system interface and the drilling tool interface, observing the operation of the drilling rig outside the window, etc.; the driller chair simulation module is used for users to simulate the operation of the driller chair buttons through the handle; the equipment interaction simulation module is used for users to interactively control the equipment in the driller room through the handle; the drilling rig operation simulation module is used for users to observe the operation of the drilling rig outside the window and simulate appropriate operations through the handle.

[0036] Furthermore, in the above step (4), in this embodiment, the head-mounted display adopts HTC VIVE Pro, which is a professional-grade head-mounted virtual reality device, including high-definition display, wide field of view, smooth experience, high-quality audio, ergonomic design and other features. In addition, HTC VIVE Pro also has strong compatibility and can be used with VIVE locators and SteamVR positioning trackers, as well as original VIVE and VIVE control handles. VIVE VIVE Pro is easy to use and has relatively rich content resources, which greatly improves the practicality of VR devices and provides excellent experience in the fields of software solutions for almost all products, including games, design, manufacturing and sales.

[0037] The handle uses the HTC VIVE Pro handle, which is a matching controller for the HTC VIVE Pro VR system. It allows users to click and interact naturally in virtual reality scenes. In actual operation, the two handles have the same functions, and you can use both handles at the same time or use a single handle.

[0038] The present invention provides a driller room simulation system based on virtual reality, which focuses on the experience of the driller room and can provide a reference for the humanized design and manufacture of the driller room. The system software can also be used as a tool for learning the operation of the driller room so that the staff can become familiar with the driller room environment more quickly.

[0039] (1) The system has an accurate model of the driller room layout design based on ergonomics; (2) The system has the function of simulating the equipment operation experience in the driller's room and the external natural environment; (3) Compared with the actual operation of huge drilling equipment by drilling operation trainees, the simulation system has higher safety and scalability. It can quickly and conveniently test various functions, which is conducive to the operator's feedback and improves the operator's work proficiency in the driller's room; (4) It can help discover problems encountered in the design of the driller's room, gradually improve the design of the driller's room, and reduce the cost of multiple modifications after the driller's room is manufactured; (5) It helps to improve and optimize the operator's comfort, increase the operator's work efficiency, and reduce the incidence of accidents. It is also more convenient to maintain and expand the system, saving time and cost in developing the driller's room functions, and improving the company's economic benefits.
