Research on Virtual Vehicle Driven with Vision

Abstract—This paper presents a traffic-oriented modeling and simulation framework. With this tool, users can create a traffic scene quickly and easily, and then drive the vehicle in the created scene with physics simulated. Especially, the vehicle could be driven with vision technology, which is equipped with a webcam and a paper printed with controlling markers. And the paper is used as the virtual wheel to control the motion of the vehicle. At such low cost, many people can enjoy the driving fun; it also provides an easy and interesting way for driving video games with promising business values.
