Study on Three Dimensional Digital Information Platform for Remote Control and Monitoring System of Shearer

摘要

An improved progressive mesh simplification algorithm for 3D real-time level of detail rendering of shearer based on half-collapse was proposed, which has been successfully applied in the rendering of shearer and produced a good result. Virtools with its secondary development technology SDK (Software Development Kit) was applied to establishing a 3DVR (Three Dimensional Virtual Reality) digital information platform for shearer based on real-time archiving of important working parameters. By using the real-time data provided by the remote control and monitoring system for shearer, the virtual 3D model was driven to reappearance the working state and changing trend of the real one instantly. Preliminary experiments carried out in Xi'an Coal Mine Machinery Factory show that the 3DVR Digital Platform can be integrated with the remote control system for shearer well. The ability to real-time display of shearer's working state is better than that in traditional ways, for the information is displayed in the form of data and curve in traditional control and monitoring system for shearer, which is unrealistic to the operator and unsuitable for remote control and monitoring.
