Constructing of tunnel actually offers one effective approach for development ofarea’s transportation industry. Owing to establishing of tunnels located in highway,railway and undersea, the places which could not be arrived at obtain the necessarybridge to reach the resources center, remarkably improving the local life and economy.Meanwhile, there is relative isolation between the inside and outside of tunnel, whichjust could avoid some loss and delay through climate changes of disasters.Tunnels are the special part of the transport artery, which hold the potentialsafety hazard because of the limited space and insufficient light. Besides, the vehicleexhausts could not be discharged timely and thoroughly, bringing deteriorating of airquality and rising of energy consumption.In order to guarantee the safe, eco-friendly, economical running of tunnels, themonitor system tends to be the indispensable and significant project.Simulated monitor means taking advantage of VR in the spot monitor field. Asthe hot topic of automatic control, it could afford one user-friendly andmultidimensional real-time approach to operate in monitor room, which toughlyequates spot survey and management.The thousand miles’ tunnel contains loads of diverse devices (traffic lights,ventilation installation, lighting equipments, message issuing devices, etc.), whichwould be an extraordinarily time-consuming and resource-intensive project on thebasis of manpower or traditional monitor pattern. The computer technique becomesthe inevitable trend in monitor area, providing the effective and comprehensivemethod to address tons of survey data economically.The current tunnel monitor systems commonly tend to be two-dimensionalsystems, with the disability of revealing perpendicular information. Besides, itrequires many skills in operating, since lack of interaction, expression and flexibility.Therefore, this paper firstly applies the VR into tunnel monitor field to designand implement the simulated monitor system. Technically, in the paper, thecommunication method of different structural systems, by using ICE middleware, wasemphasized. Functionally, the undersea tunnel system can update the simulatedobjects’ state as soon as the real ones change; meantime, it also can exhibit the whole process of addressing emergencies. Compared with2D system, it can vividly andflexibly present the surrounding scenery and the diverse devices, providing a reliablereal-time approach to ensure the normal stable operation of the tunnel and address theemergencies. |
