Development of digital simulation on the basis of technologies of virtual and augmented realitya

Abstract

The world scientific and industrial community enters presently a new phase of its development. Suffice to mention such key developments as the strategy of development of “Industry 4.0” for German manufacturers [1], two American concepts: “Industrial Internet” [2] and “Internet of things” [3]. The work on artificial intellect [4] released in 2003 laid the bases for industrial development of systems with artificial intellect, while a wide discussion on the Fourth industrial revolution [5] as a continuation of the concept of “The second industrial era” [6] was initiated in 2016 at the World economical forum. The implementation of these industrial concepts brings about a high level of competition and, as a result, searching new technologies of manufacturing competitive produce. The manufacture of competitive produce is closely connected with the problems of apprehension a great volume of information connected with the results of designing, simulation, marketing and sales of the factories’ produce. The program Industry 4.0 implies a wide use of the cutting-edge digital technologies and, particularly, the technologies of virtual and augmented reality.
