CODI Goals


The goal of this project is to integrate the communication technologies and the 3D virtual environment generation tools in a 3D generation cooperative system. This Objective defines two main functions:

  1. Support the distributed cooperative design.
  2. Allow multiple remote client access.

The system will be designed to minimize the network transmissions so that could be easily extended to their use in broad area and international networks.

The applications of the system are wide, like the construction in real time of television virtual studios, cooperative CAD/CAM, etc. The resulting system will permit the users the simultaneous work in order to design virtual environments (virtual studies), and the cooperative remote construction of complex CAD/CAM architectures.

The available operations will be: add, modify or erase objects, change of the general attributes and interactive navigation in the virtual environment from remote computers.

Any changes of the environment provoked by an user will be immediately transmitted to all the participant computers. The objects that are included in the environment will be accessed from local or remote data bases of transparent form.
