The Real-time Animated Simulation Of Six DOF Platform Based On OpenGL

The six DOF platform is Parallel Mechanism, which has the advantage of big load capability, high rigidity and precision. The 3D animated cartoon is a kind of technology which combines computer graphics and simulation. It is a material application of computer science to use the 3D animated technology in the research of six DOF platform.It introduced the characteristic and the general situation of development and research of the six DOF platform at the beginning of the paper, then analyzed the kinematics of it, and gained the equations of the forward solution of the six DOF platform. The Newton-Raphson Method is chosen after compared with the Gradient method and the Generalized Inverse of the Minimal Norm Method .The models of the six DOF platform which has been predigested were drawn by the 3D modeling software Pro/E, then it was changed to 3ds files and programmed to read the 3ds files by analyzing the memory format. In order to satisfy the requirement of real time animated cartoon and supervision, the data was transmitted by network. It is approved satisfying the requirement of real time by sending data from another computer by software. The collision of the model which could be detected by the Axis-Aligned Bounding Boxes (AABB) collision detection arithmetic for the sake of the real instance can be described when demonstrating cartoon or real time simulating, which made the software had the ability to detect collision.The result of the software system running indicate that the Newton-Raphson Method can get the satisfying solution. The 3D animated simulation and supervision software which is intuitionistic and real time can be used in the teaching of 3D animated of six DOF platform and real time supervision, is developed by the tools of Visual C++ ,OpenGL and the Windows operating system.
