UC-win/Road Support System

    VR/CG data generation and technical support service using UC-win/Road
Service Overview
  • Supporting advanced, complicated, and cumbersome processing!
    The service undertakes data generation tasks concerning UC-win/Road such as the generation of 3D VR simulation data, 3D models, and textures, fully empowering simulation tasks of road businesses, urban development planning, public projects, private developments, and so forth, using cost-affordable, high-quality data. The dynamic 3D CG simulation is a powerful presentation tool. This is why there have been so many achievements, awards and public recognition received since the service commenced in October 2001.
VR Modeling

Supporting line-shape/cross-section definition, diverse configuration settings, AVI output
  • Data generation of UC-win/Road and VR/CG caters to all needs and is based on a range of simulation examples. Materials such as general diagrams and line-shape calculation sheets, inputs, editing of landforms, definition of line-shapes/cross-sections, appropriate arrangement configuration and the output processing of 3-D models and textures.
3D Model/Texture

Existing and new creations of standard 3D model / textures are supported
  • A new creation of a 3D model and the texture installed as a default is supported as well as custom edits. Our staff will support you to help create the 3D model, texture, and the Road data creation for real-time VR presentation by UC-win/Road.
Fully supporting data generation. Users take the leading role in their presentations.
Presentation

UC-win/Road package presentation version
  • This visual tool allows engineers to control and give explanations by themselves. Presenters can explain and make changes using real-time VR and display options which offer a variety of visual representations. These features are also available in the presentation version, allowing redistribution of the program to clients.

Traffic Analysis VR Service

    Traffic analysis service by a traffic simulator and VR model creation service
Traffic Analysis VR Service is a service that utilizes traffic analysis tool such as traffic simulation model for its analysis and creates VR model fit for the traffic simulation model in UC-win/Road.

Concept
By integrating traffic simulation with the whole 3D visual interactive simulation within 3D virtual environment, various applications of the software that was somewhat challenging become feasible. This service will guide you through the entire process of traffic analysis and simulation.

Traffic Simulator
Traffic simulators that are used for the analysis are the 3 listed below. Aimsun creates VR model fit for the simulator, imports traffic behavior as calculation result and reproduces the traffic in VR space.

Model name Classification VR creation
OSCADY PRO Intersection Analysis Tool An intersection is only applied.
TRANSYT Fluid Model *1
Aimsun Micro Simulation Model Applied

*1 Data linkage from TRANSYT to OSCADY PRO is possible. * We registers on the construction consultant.

VR City Modeling System

    Interactive city modeling, a popularized city modeling method that incorporates VR
Facilitator : Hiroo Kasagi (Representative of NPO Chiikizukuri Kobo and Japan Society for Impact Assessment)

We will propose VR City Modeling System as part of the consulting service within the municipality solution.

Case study : Modeling a safe and secure city
In this case study, the vicinity of Nakameguro station where office buildings, shopping streets, and residential area coexist are visualized to evaluate its safety. In the first stage of the project, town watching was conducted and based on the observations, a map of the area was created. In stage two, we have visualized the map including its information on 3D VR space and held a workshop for residents and those affected by the safety issue of the town to explain the usage. For example, a junction that is considered dangerous can have its safety evaluated by reproducing actual traffic volume on VR space and running traffic simulation. Moreover, places that give residents the creeps at night can have their safety evaluated by changing the time of their virtual counterpart from day to night.
Furthermore, by incorporating administrative information such as a hazard map to the VR city model, even potential risks that you usually are not aware of such as the risk of flood due to severe rainfall can be visualized for risk assessment in order to make residents understand the risks and come up with measures.
By doing analog work (workshop) on digital processing (VR), we were able to design the whole process of obtaining stakeholder consensus in a very intuitive and effective way. In this case study, facilitator who specializes in this kind of workshop and FORUM8, a softwarehouse that specializes in 3D VR technology, teamed up to manage and run this really effective process of city modeling and consensus building

3DVR Engineering Service

We will provide 3D engineering service for VR modeling and BIM. :"3D Scanning and Modeling Service", "3D Physical Modeling Service", "3D Drawing Service"

BIM Compliant 3D Drawing Option / Report and Drawing Total Service

By using integrated BIM solution of Allplan series, 3D drawings and 2D drawings are generated.

By using BIM integration solution of Allplan series, 3D drawing and 2D drawing are created. It offers the data having the standard setting such as condition of reinforcing bar differed by the colors with Allplan viewer. You can utilize it for various study, use for 2D drawing, development to the software having BIM function (IFC data conversion). However in case of 2D drawing in Allplan, since it currently does not support SXF exchange, SXF convertible software such as our product UC-Draw is used. The end result is based on the data submission and can offer it as Allplan 3D data (supports IFC) output. It is intended for construction and civil engineering structure.

Sample model 1:
3D sample model of damaged and repaired status intended for current structure objects.
The damaged points of structures and 3D model image after repair are introduced. As of exposed points of rebar, it is possible to express by modeling and arrangement of rebar one by one separately. Reinforcement of arrangement and duplication can be reproduced based on the existing drawings.
It is possible not only to express the color of building frame, rebar, and aggregate by being close to the actual color, but to show exaggerated colors on 3D model. Moreover, in case the structure exists underwater,
by creating the model and changing the transmission rate, the expression of transparent water is possible. By this application, it is possible to express the underwater model as well.

Sample model 2:
Distributing reservoir sample model
We are introducing the sample cases performing the modeling of distributing reservoir used Allplan Engineering which has the strong rebar arrangement tool for RC structure. Advantage for BIM model of 3D Modeling of this sample was performed after analyzing the handwritten old drawing. Once the drawing was converted from 2D to 3D, everyone would be able to understand a complicated bar arrangement situation intuitively by displaying walk through animation and VR like this sample.
Practical use of BIM in the management and the future repair phase such as reinforcement of concrete and rebar degraded in aging, and reinforcement based on visualized rebar arrangement by creating 3 D model having attribute., For example, it is also possible to express a damage condition based on an investigation report. Moreover, structural analysis is conducted by the model created through another modeling processes as well.

3D Physical Modeling Service

It's the service which outputs various 3D models, the real "model" by 3D printer, output by UC-1 series, Allplan, and of course UC-win/Road, UC-win/FRAME(3D) and so on.
Top- of- the- line Zprinter650 of Z corporation is used, and it outputs 3d model of full- color by ink-jet. Design range is Horizontal 254mm x Height 381mm x Depth 203mm in industry's largest class. Dividing and outputting the model at the appropriate position make it possible to create even if the model is larger than this design range. The design time is several minutes for small model and a few hours to ten hours for big models. Zprinter650 can read a lot of 3D data such as the file of STL, VRML, PLY, 3DS, ZPR.
