DLR Visualization 2 Library - Real-Time Graphical Environments for Virtual Commissioning

Abstract

In this paper, the next generation of model-based visu- alization is introduced, the DLR Visualization 2 Library. This new real-time graphics environment for Modelica is equipped with a state of the art engine for physics based lighting calculation and high-definition render quality, si- multaneous visualization of parallel running simulation models, new features like a modern streaming interface and a new, cleaner library structure. It enables the user to create graphical real-time environments for virtual com- missioning of complex systems of systems and imaging based sensors. Some applications, as for example depth- camera data generation or rendering of point clouds or vectorized flow visualization are demonstrated in the use cases section of this paper
