Controlling 3d Images/videos/animations

[anurag267]

I have been given a task herein I have to control the 3d Image/Video/Animation through labview.

Can anyone guide how exactly should I approach to this project.

What do you mean by "control"?

[anurag267]

It means that I should be able to manipulate and make changes with the animations as per my need..

Adding to the same thread.

If I have a animation showing working of a motor so I should be to control its operation, like when to start OR stop the motor according to my need.

Hello anurag,

Whatkind of 3Dimage/Animation are you trying to control? What is the file format? You can import images created by SolidWorks and other 3D packages into LabIVEW then using 3D picture control to render and manipulate the 3D images. You can look at the examples here as reference

Thanks a lot Sir,

The ' Robotics Simulation Utility using 3D Picture Control ' is really helpful to me but if you do have any smaller application related to this which can help me to understand the concept more easily

it would of HUGE help to me.

Waiting for your reply.

Hello Anurag,

If you have LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module installed, I would suggest looking at NI Example Finder > Toolkits and Modules > Control and Simulation > Case Studies > Mechatronics > Linear Inverted Pendulum Simulation VI

Dear Sir,

Can you help in  finding the evaluaiton version of  ' LabVIEW Control Design and Simulation Module ' ??

I dont have it installed.

I tried to find it but I couldnt.
