Simulation of a virtual sailing boat in OpenSG

This student research project is about the simulation of the control of a virtual sailing boat. The application  SailSim uses a physics engine to simulate the forces which affect the sailing boat. OpenSG is used to render a virtual environment and the sailing boat in realtime .

This was done in 2005 and 2006 at the  University Koblenz-Landau

You can find additional information, the documentation (in german) and a video of the application on the  SailSim website.
