Scenes & Models
Overview
Section titled “Overview”A scene is the digital-twin content currently loaded in realvirtual WEB. It can represent a machine, a production area or a planning layout. A delivery can contain one prepared scene or several examples that you choose from the model selector.
The preferred model is a GLB file with rv_extras metadata. Geometry, hierarchy, component configuration, kinematics information and signal references travel together, so the file describes the twin without a separate model schema or server-side scene configuration.
Model contents
Section titled “Model contents”A prepared GLB can contain:
- The visible machine geometry and hierarchy
- Drives, sensors and transport behavior
- Signal names and component references
- Logic and simulation configuration
- Saved information used by HMI, Planner or DES workspaces
The exact functions available in the viewer depend on the metadata included in that model.
Examples and model selection
Section titled “Examples and model selection”Use the model selector when a delivery provides more than one model. The public demo is a prepared example that you can open without installing anything. A shared link can also select a specific scene and workspace for you.
Simulation controls
Section titled “Simulation controls”- Play / Pause starts or pauses drive, transport, source, sink and logic updates while the scene remains available for camera movement and selection.
- Reset removes movable units and returns logic sequences to their initial state. It does not reset every drive or signal value.
- Press Space to toggle Play / Pause or Shift+R to reset when the cursor is not inside a text field.
Quick Start
Section titled “Quick Start”- Open a delivery link, local GLB or the public demo.
- If a model selector is available, choose the example or model you want to inspect.
- Open the hierarchy and select a drive, sensor or transport component to confirm that component information is present.
- Use Play / Pause to observe the simulation, then pause it before inspecting a precise state.
- Use Reset when you want to start a new material-flow run from a clean transport state.
