在大型分布式公司中，分布式设计评审具有节省成本、缩短上市时间和提高效率的潜力。它还具有通过将更广泛的专业知识纳入设计评审中来改进设计流程的潜力。本文描述了多个组件的集成，以在混合多方、异构多站点 2D 和沉浸式 3D 环境中实现分布式虚拟设计审查。该系统为协作提供更高层的支持，包括化身、高保真音频和共享工件操作。该系统可在多种界面环境中运行，从洞穴到墙壁再到桌面工作站。软件架构的核心是人类集成虚拟环境 (HIVE) [6]，这是一个协作基础设施和工具集，用于支持多用户、地理分布、2D 和 3D 共享应用程序的研究和开发。 HIVE 与 VisualEyes 软件配合使用，可在虚拟环境中可视化 3D 数据。我们还详细描述了加利福尼亚州马里布的 HRL 实验室和密歇根州沃伦的 GM 研发中心之间的两个站点、异构多用户系统演示中的配置和经验教训。
In large distributed corporations, distributed design review offers the potential for cost savings, reduced time to market, and improved efficiency. It also has the potential to improve the design process by enabling wider expertise to be incorporated in design reviews. This paper describes the integration of several components to enable distributed virtual design review in mixed multi-party, heterogeneous multi-site 2D and immersive 3D environments. The system provides higher layers of support for collaboration including avatars, high fidelity audio, and shared artifact manipulation. The system functions across several interface environments ranging from CAVEs to Walls to desktop workstations. At the center of the software architecture is the Human Integrating Virtual Environment (HIVE) [6], a collaboration infrastructure and toolset to support research and development of multi-user, geographically distributed, 2D and 3D shared applications. The HIVE functions with VisualEyes software for visualizing 3D data in virtual environments. We also describe in detail the configuration and lessons learned in a two site, heterogeneous multi-user demonstration of the system between HRL Laboratories in Malibu, California and GM R&D in Warren, Michigan.
