Abstract:

A major part of world mobility depends upon automotive sector development. Currently, we are witnessing the shift from fossil fuels towards electric automotive sectors. Last decade has shown sharp developments in the field of computer and IT. The application of CAD softwares in design and development is increasing with every passing day. The visualisation of the designed data in softwares plays a vital role during design. One major limitation is visualisation of 3D geometry on a 2D monitor display. In this paper, an effort is made to use the VR technologies for the visualisation of design models of automotive sector. This paper discusses different strategies and methods to visualise CAD models in VR. An interface is developed between desktop computer and android phone to perform visualisation while using VR. This paper also talks about the bidirectional control of visualisation in Computer and android mobile. Furthermore, the benefits and challenges associated with the use of VR in the visualisation of the CAD model is brought to light.
