C-Vu® Viewer
A simple yet powerful viewer for highly effective presentation of visual information.
C-Vu® Viewer enables logged and recorded data, as well as visualisations, simulations and models prepared in other products from the C-Vu® family, to be replayed either exactly as recorded or with manual intervention to examine actual or hypothetical scenarios.
C-Vu® Viewer is a valuable and practical tool for:
- Evaluation
- Analysis
- Training
- Litigation
As well as for efficient communication and presentation of:
- Pre-recorded situations
- Mathematical simulations
- Projects and ideas
To a wide range of audiences, including:
- Customers
- Management
- Team members
- Project stakeholders
High visual efficiency
The high visual efficiency of 3D visualisations produced by C-Vu® Viewer is achieved by employing the rules of cognitive science and 3D cartography, supported with automatic view optimisation and focusing algorithms, to provide a clear, natural and easily-understandable presentation of the portrayed situation.
Unmatched ergonomics and interactivity
C-Vu® Viewer is extremely interactive, as well as being ergonomic, intuitive, and easy to navigate thanks to our patent-pending dynamic direct manipulation mechanisms, and integration with a 6 degrees-of-freedom manipulation device. In replay of pre-recorded situations the user has a full control over the replay time, speed, and direction.
Automatic presentation
Manual interactions, navigation and manipulation activities can be recorded into a fully automatic presentation, which may be replayed later at normal or modified speed, looped, paused, executed step-by-step, or disengaged at any time by an operator to regain manual control.
Integration with other products from the C-Vu® family
C-Vu® Viewer reads and displays C-Vu® Project files as well as for recordings from C-Vu® Surveillance, C-Vu® Navigator and C-Vu® Pilot.
Simulations prepared in external mathematical packages may be incorporated in the presented models and visualisations using C-Vu® Project.
Ease of use
The product is easy to master and does not require specialist technical proficiency from its operators. Full training and ongoing support is provided upon request.
Technologies
GeoVS® proprietary technologies are based on over a decade of extensive research in 3D cartography, cognitive science, human-computer interaction and spatial data structures conducted by a team of world-class professionals in the leading research centres in Hong Kong, United Kingdom and France. Among these technologies are:
- 3D Carto™ - dynamic visual optimisation of the presented scenes for fast and easy visual understanding, and maximisation of the information accuracy.
- Free Ergo™ - natural, intuitive and ergonomic direct manipulation and operation interface, based on our patent-pending dynamic optimisation mechanisms and metaphors, and integration with a 6 degrees-of-freedom manipulation device.
- Kine Track™ - advanced kinetic real-time data structures and algorithms used in collision and grounding avoidance that maintain spatial relationships of moving vessels, static objects and sea bathymetry, and incorporate ship dynamics and physical conditions of tides and waves.
