Real-time computer generated video will play an important role in multimedia content creation. Identiication of the camera parameters is an important subject to be solved in these environments. In this paper a possible solution based on image processing is shown. This solution uses the Generalized Hough Transform to calculate pan and tilt angles and the 3-D space coordinates of the camera. The ...

Two concepts of virtual reality are competing in the cyber world, virtual reality as total adaptability and virtual reality as the simulation of possible worlds. Virtuality as adaptability in industrial production leads to a closer consideration of individual consumer demand and to de-massified production. It implies a stronger reference of production to the reality of consumer needs. The aesth...

The concept of the virtual enterprise is being increasingly promoted as a model for a new form of Information and Communication Technologies mediated business enterprise. Initially, we will examine the concept of the virtual enterprise and the supportive role of Information and Communication Technologies as conceived by its proponents. Based on this initial understanding we will suggest the con...

Production process planning in real or virtual environment refers to the choice of parameters and sequencing of certain manufacturing processes with the aim to obtain the required product features with greater productivity, reduced production costs, shorter development time etc. Therefore, innovative systems for virtual process planning, based on intelligent agents, greatly improve adaptation t...
