Abstract

This project examines the implementation of 3D technology and simulation in interactive help. The number of Digital SLR users around the globe is increasing at a fast rate. The majority of people now are mostly interest in photography. In order for them to take good quality pictures, a DSLR camera is required. However, many users actually do not understand how to use a DSLR camera. The most common way of obtaining tips and tricks on how to use a DSLR is through forums and websites. Users often waste countless hours searching the internet and also the user manuals for specific troubleshooting advice. The conventional help that comes with the camera is the Help Manual. This help manual is usually a small, printed booklet. These help are often arranged in a linear form and it contains a lot of other information that would confuse users. Furthermore, text based help manuals are not interactive. Therefore, text based help manuals are ineffective in delivering the information that it is suppose to. By incorporating the latest 3D technology and interactivity features, this project has succeeded in producing an interactive 3D help manual. This 30 help manual gives users a better visualization on the model of the DLSR camera. Moreover, through the interactive element incorporated into the simulation, users can learn and understand much faster. This project has also a detailed analysis of the meaning and effects interactivity has on an individual.
