  interactive

5
Media

• CD-Rom / DVD
• FreeWare and Viewer (No installation)
• Web Enabled
• FreeWare and Viewer (Release planned for 2004)
• PC
• Installation required from CD-Rom or web

6
Creating content

• Create a sample in Caspoc
• Add text as HTML to the sample
• Export the report in HTML (Internet ready)

7
Interactive Simulation / Animation

• FreeWare runs directly from CD-Rom
• Model can be edited by the user
• Viewer runs directly from the CD-Rom
• The user can run the simulation, change dedicated
  parameters and view the results directly.

8
Modeling

• Circuit components
• Block-diagram
• Modeling Language

9
Simulation

• Fast
• No convergence problems
• View results immediately
• Change parameters during the simulation
  interactive

10
Components

• Fast ideal semiconductor models
• Dynamic semiconductor models
• Electrical machine and mechanical models
• Control blocks

11
Ease of use

• All in one schematic (Drag Drop)
• Scopes are directly connected to nodes or
  components (Drag Drop)
• Results are immediately displayed during the
  simulation

12
Animation

• Animation gives better understanding of the
  behavior of the total system.
• Animations shows the operation of switches,
  current through components, nodal voltages and
  animated components

13
Visualizing simulation results

• Voltage, current or signal level indicated by
  color
• Node color voltage level
• Component color current level
• Block diagram color signal level
• Components animation motors, switches, lamps
• Object animation crane, car, elevator, spindle,
  etc.

14
Interactive

• Parameters can be changed during the simulation
  and the simulation can be continued
• Using the interactive components the simulation /
  animation shows directly the response

15
Animation and Teaching!

• Multimedia and Simulation/Animation technologies
• makes studying more attractive to students.
• makes teaching much easier.
• complex technical problems are easy to follow and
  understand.
