초록

In this paper, we propose an improved algorithm for rendering method to guarantee frame rates based on HMD (Head Mounted Display) motion in an avionics simulator. One of important issues in HMD simulators is to guarantee frame rates despite fast motion of HMD which is more rapid than the aircraft's moving speed to maintain a quality of images. Therefore, we propose an algorithm considering the moving speed of a pilot's head: Improved Speed-Based LOD (Level-Of-Detail) Control (ISBLC). In the proposed algorithm, frame rates are improved by changing dynamic LOD which determines details of objects for rendering images. Throughout the experiments, we show the average frame rates are achieved up to 60 and minimum frame rates are guaranteed up to 40. The proposed algorithms will be used HMD simulation in avionics simulators.
