It reads and displays files created by popular 3D CAD programs and can be run from within many such programs, or else stand-alone under DOS. VeriScope makes it easy to visualise and hence optimise your complex 3D CAD models and quickly generates movies you can use to present your ideas in a persuasive manner. This is the fastest (and sometimes the only) way that you and others can fully appreciate the spatial implications of your designs. You continue to edit your designs in your 3D CAD package guided by the powerful visual feedback VeriScope gives you, as shown in the following work cycle: EMBED MSDraw \* mergeformat Where VeriScope helps The increasing power and storage capacity of PCs invites us to attempt ever larger design projects using 3D CAD programs such as AutoCAD. However, complex wireframe structures can be difficult to visualise from conventional 2D computer projections alone. As a result, the overall concept of a model may fail to communicate, and the true significance of detail may be overlooked. By contrast, VeriScope makes you feel you inhabit the same space as your 3D model. You can wander around freely under finger-tip control exploring the big picture, or zooming in to examine design detail from any angle. By making your models appear more real particularly by enhancing depth perception and real-time interaction VeriScope sets you free to design, evaluate and communicate even larger projects with confidence. How VeriScope works VeriScope provides a heightened sense of realism by combining the following techniques (not all at the same time): o perspective views o stereoscopic wireframe viewing o interactive motion control o fully shaded animation o fast surface shading o lighting control o anti-aliasing lines Stereopsis simulating depth by presenting a different perspective to each eye is achieved by viewing a 2-colour display through special coloured glasses supplied with your software. VeriScope implements a uniquely intuitive method developed by Pearson Interface allowing fine control over your motion in 3D model space using a standard, 2-button mouse. Carefully structured low level code (for Intel 80x86 processors) allows VeriScope to animate wireframe views in real time and reduce wait-times for surface shading. Movies created using VeriScope can be replayed on any PC (286 or better) using the Movie Player program provided. Other features File I/O o Reads DXF files and stores as MOD files for fast retrieval o Outputs screens as PCX files o Reads PCX files for use as backgrounds, allowing composition o Outputs VGA 16 colour standard mode movies in Pearson Interface's own MOV file format Visualisation o Lights fixed or relative to your camera position o Very fast Gouraud (smooth) shading o Phong shading layer definable surface reflectance and colour o SuperVGA mode changes within VeriScope o Mark key frames as you pilot through model space and generate walk-through animation o Movies generated automatically from user-defined key frames by interpolation VeriScope and your PC VeriScope requires DOS 3.0 or later. The minimum hardware you need is: o 286 IBM compatible PC o Colour monitor with VGA video card o Mouse with Microsoft compatible driver o Hard disk with 2 megabytes free space o 640 kilobytes RAM memory For improved performance the following resources are recommended: o 25Mhz 386/486 PC with Math Co-processor o SuperVGA video card o 2 megabytes Extended Memory o Hard disk with 10 megabytes free disk space o 518 kilobytes free DOS low memory The Extended Memory is best used for disk-caching software such as Microsofts Smartdrive. You can also use a RAM Disk. If you do, set the environment variable TMP to the RAM disk, as follows: DOSprompt> SET TMP=E:\ VeriScope movies can be played back on any 286 (or better) PC with VGA graphics capability.
