“…US Navy utilise a performance support and training system for electronic technicians (Coffey et al, 2003), while the Royal Navy employ a performance support system for training maintenance technicians to use Radar 1007 (Joyce, 2002). Large companies such as Rolls-Royce (Newman, 2001a), Oracle (Russell, 2001) and Boeing (Boose et al, 2003) have experienced teams of technical writers, engineers and computer scientists who produce high-quality technical documentation.…”

“…Previous work has proposed research agendas to do with promoting a standards environment within which such safety critical systems can be developed [3]. Another strand of work has looked at the process of production for such documents [4]. This present work is concerned with the presentation of interactive (that can be rotated, and moved by the user) 3-D objects for diagrammatic use in hypermedia documentation.…”

Line sketches are ubiquitous in both the fields of design and documentation, because they are both quick and simple to produce and because they have a very high 'power to weight ratio' in terms of the information that they convey against their complexity as data or visual objects. This paper describes two pieces of work which exploit the power and speed of line style presentation. The first uses line sketches as the basis for rapid production of three dimensional models as a starting point for the automotive design process. The second provides interactive presentation, in variable weight line form, of three dimensional computer models. Together they illustrate that line style representations of three dimensional objects have a use which is often ignored in the drive towards photo-realism that is apparent in the domain of three dimensional multimedia.

This paper presents two pieces of work which together form part of a chain of information transformation leading from engineering design models to useable hypermedia technical documentation. The building of such a chain needs to take account of two major constraints, those of efficiency of the transformation process and that of usability of the end result. The first piece of work presented here addresses the first problem by providing a means of automatically simplifying a model to a stage where it is usable as an interactive VRML document. The second piece of work addresses the second issue by investigating and prototyping novel means of presentation which provide greater 'readability' for the resultant models.
