How to load your own Open Inventor Models:

The scripts RUN_HEART and RUN_QUAKES execute 'immersaview'. You have to provide the model as the first argument to this executable. The second argument can be a configuration file (default : StereoCameras.iv).

[A] Loading a single model

  1. Suppose you have a model called 'Earth.iv'. Create a script RUN_EARTH
    in your favorite editor.
  2. Type './immersaview Earth.iv'. Save and exit.
  3. Now run 'RUN_EARTH'.


[B] Loading a flipbook

  1. Suppose you have a bunch of models you want to flip through. You will first
    have to create an Inventor file that can contains these models.

    e.g. Suppose you have the models Mars_00.iv, Mars_01.iv, Mars_02.iv,....,
    Mars_10.iv stored in the MarsModels directory. Create a file called Mars.iv and
    type the following:

    #Inventor V2.1 ascii
    Separator {

    File { name "MarsModels/Mars_00.iv" }
    File { name "MarsModels/Mars_01.iv" }
    File { name "MarsModels/Mars_02.iv" }
    .
    .
    .

    File { name "MarsModels/Mars_10.iv" }
    }

    Save and exit.

  2. Now load 'Mars.iv' as you would load 'Earth.iv' in [A]
