“…Depending on the purpose of the simulated target, it can be a computer generated enemy soldier or an actual soldier's representation that joins the simulation from another virtual environment. Karr et al [13] define a synthetic soldier that is called a 'computer generated force'. These synthetic soldiers are performing computer generated actions as enemy forces.…”

In this technical note we survey the area of smart collision information processing sensors. We review the existing technologies to detect collision or overlap between fast moving physical objects or objects in virtual environments, physical environments or a combination of physical and virtual objects. We report developments in the collision detection of fast moving objects at discrete time steps such as two consecutive time frames, as well as continuous time intervals such as in an interframe collision detection system. Our discussion of computational techniques in this paper is limited to convex objects. Techniques exist however to efficiently decompose non-convex objects into convex objects. We also discuss the tracking technologies for objects from the standpoint of collision detection or avoidance.

“…Virtual reality (VR) simulation is an emerging computer technology pedagogy. Although VR technology begun with military training and flight simulators, 5 its use has evolved into arcade games, 6 architectural and interior design, 7 training and assessment of surgical skills, 8 and distance learning 9 . Virtual reality is a novel technology that can create a 3-dimensional first-person experience by surrounding them in a virtual space 10 .…”

There is no concept analysis in the literature about "sense of presence" in immersive virtual reality environment in the context of nursing clinical education. The purpose of this article is to explore the meaning and derive an operational definition of the concept of sense of presence within the context of immersive virtual reality environment in nursing clinical education. Using Rodgers' approach, this evolutionary concept analysis will clarify the concept's surrogate and related terms, attributes, antecedents, and consequences. A clearer conceptualization is paramount to help provide knowledge for nurses and other health care professionals, thus guiding their practice, theory, and research.

“…However, these models, although they provide a good crowd simulation for smaller areas, do not scale well when hundreds of thousands or even millions of characters are needed. For example, the United States military already uses a wide variety of simulation systems for training [8,24], however, these simulations lack a satisfactory crowd models [22] that reflect both mob behavior and individual behaviors.…”

A Distributed Framework for Scalable Large-Scale Crowd Simulation

Abstract. Emerging applications in the area of Emergency Response and DisasterManagement are increasingly demanding interactive capabilities to allow for the quick understanding of a critical situation, in particular in urban environments. A key component of these interactive simulations is how to recreate the behavior of a crowd in real-time while supporting individual behaviors. Crowds can often be unpredictable and present mixed behaviors such as panic or aggression, that can very rapidly change based on unexpected new elements introduced into the environment. We present preliminary research specifically oriented towards the simulation of large crowds for emergency response and rescue planning situations. Our approach uses a highly scalable architecture integrated with an efficient rendering architecture and an immersive visualization environment for interaction. In this environment, users can specify complex scenarios, "plug-in" crowd behavior algorithms, and interactively steer the simulation to analyze and evaluate multiple "what if" situations.
