Abstract

Method for extracting data from a vision database (2) in order to form a simulation database (3), wherein in the vision database (2), graphic data of a plurality of individual objects in the form of polygons and textures assigned to the polygons are entered, and wherein in the simulation database (2) object data of the individual objects are entered, with the following steps: a) definition of object classes by classification of the individual objects described by the graphic data in the vision database (2), b) assignment of the textures to the object classes, c) generation of object data in the simulation database (3) by assignment of polygons to individual objects based on the object class assigned to the polygons via their texture.

Claims

1-18. -18. (canceled)

19. A method for extraction of data from a vision database (2) for forming a simulation database (3), wherein in the vision database (2), graphic data of a plurality of individual objects (9-13) in the form of polygons and textures associated with the polygons are entered, and wherein in the simulation database (3) object data of the individual objects (9-13) are entered, comprising the following steps:

a) defining object classes by classification of the individual objects (9-13) described by the graphic data in the vision database (2);

b) associating the textures to the object classes;

c) generating object data in the simulation database (3) by association of polygons to individual objects (9-13) based on the object class associated to the polygon via its texture.

20. The method according to claim 19, wherein the simulation database (3) is provided with a simulation device (1) for simulation of motion sequences in a landscape (8) with individual objects (9-13) and for simulation of interactions with these individual objects (9-13), wherein the simulation database (3) is useable for calculation of the sequence of motions and interactions in the landscape and/or wherein the vision database (2) is useable for graphic representation of the landscape (8).
