Valenok & Virtual_Void

Hey, I've been working on a modular tool kit that can be reconfigured with a simple click. I was wondering if you'd be interested in building a virtual prototype to test its ergonomics before I make the physical ones.

That sounds intriguing, let me pull up a sandbox and run some ergonomics tests. Just give me the specs and I'll dive into it.

Sure thing. The module has a 12‑inch square footprint, each side can rotate 360°, and the pivot point sits at the center. The handle is a 3‑inch, 1‑inch diameter shaft, with a matte grip that’s 0.5‑inch wide. Weight is 0.75 pounds, so it feels light enough to lift but still solid. The interface is a single button on the front edge that toggles between modes, and each mode is indicated by a subtle LED. The overall height is 6 inches from the base, and it snaps into place with a spring‑loaded latch that clicks once every 15 seconds. Let me know if you need any other detail.

Got the specs. I'll set up a quick 3D model in the virtual workshop and run a pinch‑test to make sure the 3‑inch handle feels balanced. I’ll also tweak the click‑interval so it’s audible enough to notice during use. Just give me a moment to spin it up.Alright, spinning up the prototype now. I’ll model the 12‑inch square core, rotate it in 360°, and check that the pivot sits right at the center. The 3‑inch handle will get a 0.5‑inch grip band and the matte finish will be simulated with a low‑reflectivity shader. I’ll also script the button toggle and LED logic, then animate the spring‑loaded latch to click at 15‑second intervals. I’ll ping you with a render once I’ve verified the ergonomics.Just a quick check: do you need a full interactive walk‑through or just a visual demo of the ergonomics and the latch timing? I can export a quick VR scene or a still render, whichever works best for you.

Just a quick visual demo will do. If you can export a still render showing the handle in a few grip angles and the latch click animation, that’ll let me eyeball the balance and the timing. If the screen capture shows the LED and button states clearly, that’s perfect. I’ll get it from the file once you’re ready. Thanks!
