The KL sentral virtua reality simulation / Ainun Maziah Saidina Omar

The acceptance of 3D product in the market is now gaining significant momentum.
Nowadays, there are abundance of respectable 3D product on the market, which is
applied to various fields including entertainment, training, planning, e-commerce,
and data visualization. This thesis project is about implementing 3D model of the
selected object, which is the KL Sentral building. This project was developed using
such a technology by focusing on the KL Sentral building as the experimental model.
There is a big contrast between 2D and 3D product. It was proven that 3D product
have the ability to attract more user than conventional 2D product. However 3D
product is not easy to develop as compared to the 2D product. This project provide
us with ideas and processes involved in order to make interactive 3D product and
what has to be considered to make it a successful one. It is hope that this simulation
approach will reflect the user of the KL Sentral's towards attitudes, perspectives and
belief in order to familiarize themselves with the KL Sentral environment and
facilities without wasting their time and confidence. To develop this project,
Softimage XSI 4.0 was used to develop the 3D model, Macromedia Director MX as
the platform, Macromedia Firework and SwishMax to develop attractive elements.
Those software were chosen because of their compatibility performance and
reliability. This project can be used as a tour guide for the visitor to familiarize
themselves with the KL Sentral surroundings and architecture.
