3D scanning3D scanner is the process of analyzing a real-world object or environment to collect three dimensional data of its shape and possibly its appearance (e.g. color). The collected data can then be used to construct digital 3D models. A 3D scanner can be based on many different technologies, each with its own limitations, advantages and costs. Many limitations in the kind of objects that can be digitised are still present. For example, optical technology may encounter many difficulties with dark, shiny, reflective or transparent objects.
Motion simulatorA motion simulator or motion platform is a mechanism that creates the feelings of being in a real motion environment. In a simulator, the movement is synchronised with a visual display of the outside world (OTW) scene. Motion platforms can provide movement in all of the six degrees of freedom (DOF) that can be experienced by an object that is free to move, such as an aircraft or spacecraft:. These are the three rotational degrees of freedom (roll, pitch, yaw) and three translational or linear degrees of freedom (surge, heave, sway).
Chiropratiquevignette|Colonne vertébrale La chiropratique ou chiropraxie (du grec el kheir « main », et el práxis « exécution, action » ; prononcer kiro-pratique) est une médecine non conventionnelle qui vise à la prévention, au diagnostic et au traitement des troubles de l’appareil musculo-squelettique, en particulier de la colonne vertébrale. Cette pratique a des origines ésotériques et est fondée sur plusieurs idées pseudoscientifiques.
Full motion racing simulatorA full motion racing simulator, sometimes called a full motion sim rig, is a motion simulator that is purposed for racing, and must provide motion simulation in all six degrees of freedom, as defined by the aviation simulator industry many decades ago. The six degrees of freedom coincide with Earth physics, and are commonly referred to (in both aircraft, watercraft and other vehicles) as: The three translational movements: Surge, sway and heave (front/back motion, side-to-side motion and up/down motion, respectively) The three rotational movements: Roll, pitch, and yaw (rotation around the normal, transverse and longitudinal axes, respectively) Simulations of these six degrees of freedom are achieved by 2 fundamentally different approaches.
