Principle and Realization of 2D Maps on Virtools in Roaming System

Article Preview

Abstract:

The immersive feeling brought by virtual roaming system easily causes the user to got lost in it. In order not to lose direction in a three-dimensional virtual environment, usually a 2D map and the real-time current location of the user are provided so that the user can know his location in the 3D virtual environment action to take for the next step. However, since the parameter transformation is difficult to understand, the technology in virtual system of roaming is limited to use and promotion. This article analyzes the principle of 2D map and suggests the way to realize it based on Virtools. Special explanation is given to how to convert data in the three-dimensional coordinate to the 2D coordinate and the mapping relationship between the direction of the three-dimensional space and the direction of the two-dimensional maps.
