Abstract:
1. A method for displaying a 2D representation of a 3D world on an image plane of a simulator, the image plane defining a fixed viewing region of a replica environment of the simulator and corresponding to a view observed by an operator of the simulator, the method comprising: determining a head position of the operator of the replica environment; modifying a viewing volume of the 3D world based on the head position of the operator while keeping the image plane constant to form a modified viewing volume such that the viewing volume of the 3D world is modified for each eye based on the eye position for each eye of the operator while keeping the image plane constant to form a modified viewing volume for each eye; generating the 2D representation based on the modified viewing volume such that the modified viewing volume is provided for each eye of the operator; and displaying the 2D representation on the image plane.
