A conceptual design for welding training simulation using virtual reality with multiple marker tracking method.

This paper presents the use of a vision-based marker with a Virtual Reality (VR) system in welding training simulation to gain psychomotor skills in the welding position for engineering students. Currently, there is a lack of conceptual design and design management framework which leverage the combination of the VR world and tracking technique. This paper aims to explore the area of VR in welding training and how the multiple markers tracking methods can be utilized to overcome the tracking problems in VR for welding training simulation. The prototype system of combined VR and multiple tracking method features will be useful and effective for physical-based VR learning such as welding training simulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
