Human Modelling and Design of Spatio-Temporal Queries on 3D Video Database

Takashi Tomii, Kiril Salev, Sayaka Imai, Hiroshi Arisawa · 1998

This paper presents a concept of a 3D Video Database, called Real World Database (RWDB), in which not only image and audio data but also object structure, behavior, temporal event and all spatial occasions are stored uni­formly. In this presentation, we will concentrate ourselves into the factory workers’ modelling and simulation for the virtual manufacturing systems. Us­ing RWDB, we designed the human body structures, motions in a work and events over them. As a result, it can evaluate various motions of workers and pursue the optimum design of works. Also a functional data manipulation language MMQL for spatio-temporal inquiry is offered. This enables us to evaluate the posture and safety of workers based on the calculation of posi­tions of spatial objects.
