Abstract:
1. A simulation system comprising: a data processing unit; a display in communication with the data processing unit; and a physical model comprising: the data processing unit is configured to: identify the physical model based on the calibration data and propose a choice of simulation scenarios based on the identification, each simulation scenario comprising a virtual reality (VR) model or an augmented reality (AR) model; receive a selection of one of the simulation scenarios from a user; receive data from the position and orientation sensor indicating the position of the physical model, the orientation of the physical model, or a combination thereof; receive the calibration data from the calibration unit indicating a position of the position and orientation sensor relative to the physical model, an orientation of the position and orientation sensor relative to the physical model, or a combination thereof; generate the VR model or AR model associated with the selected simulation scenario using the data from the position and orientation sensor and the calibration data from the calibration unit; and render the VR model or AR model to the display.
