Description
Using the modern 3D visualization software and hardware to represent
the object models of the HEP detectors would create the impressive
pictures of events and the detail views of the detectors facilitating
the design, simulation and data analysis and representation the huge
amount of the information flooding the modern HEP experiments. In this
paper we represent the work made by members of STAR collaboration
from Laboratory of High Energy Physics JINR Dubna. This work devoted
to visualisation of the STAR detector geometry. Initially the detector
geometry is described by means of specific AGE - geometry specification
language and it can be converted to either TVolume or TGeoVolume type
object of ROOT environment using of specially developed software. We
created class library for conversion of the ROOT OO model of the detector
from ROOT environment to the text "iv" file. Our class library assumes
the conversion of ROOT OO models to Coin-based C++ representation and
the Coin-based 3d Viewer with cutting / highlighting / selecting pieces
of the image features. Since the class library implementation is free of
the STAR experiment specific it can be used to visualize any detector
geometry represented in the ROOT environment. The results of our work
can be downloaded from the LHE web server.
