The color of the sky, haze color, visibility range, and percent of direct vesus ambient illumination change depending on the selected weather condition. This provides realistic weather simulation for most weather conditions. In rainy conditions, a droplet pattern appears on the windshield and the side windows, and the area under the windshield wipers is swiped clean when the wipers are turned on. The visual database is modified to include reflective puddles in the roadway. If the weather is chosen to simulate snow, the visual database is modified to show snow on roofs, trees, fences and roadways.
Visibility is reduced.
The windshield wiper is modeled with a blade and arm, and moves realistically. When the wipers are activated, a clear wiped area appears on the windshield. The DS-100 database is rich in detail and variety. Collectively, these environments should meet the needs of most users. Database Overview Note the detail and variety of building types shown in Figure 4.
