Simulink: Strange problem with disappearing objects in VR Sink

[TheFerruccio]

I have a few simulink models that I've made over the years, but the computers at this one particular computer lab have a weird response to them.

When I try to view the VR model on simulink, it's as if most of the object is clipped out of view unless I get extremely close to it. I see mostly black, as if some tiny black sphere surrounded the camera and made everything else go out of view.

My VR models work just fine on the other computers, though. I don't quite get it. Has anyone else had this kind of experience, and is there a good fix? It seems like a computer setting that might need to be changed.

One possible solution is to try to reset the computer's graphics settings. In some cases, this can help with the graphical issues you described. You can also try adjusting the screen resolution of the computer, or updating the graphics driver for the machine. If none of these work, you may need to contact the computer lab and ask them to investigate further.

I understand your frustration with this strange problem with disappearing objects in VR Sink in Simulink. It is important to troubleshoot and understand the underlying cause of this issue in order to find a solution.

One possible explanation for this issue could be hardware or graphics settings on the specific computer lab's computers. It is possible that the graphics card or driver on those computers may not be fully compatible with Simulink's VR capabilities. I would recommend checking the hardware specifications and graphics settings on those computers to ensure they meet the minimum requirements for running Simulink VR models.

Another potential cause could be a software conflict or glitch. It may be helpful to try updating Simulink to the latest version or reinstalling it to see if that resolves the issue. Additionally, checking for any updates or patches for the VR Sink feature in Simulink may also be beneficial.

If the issue persists, I would suggest reaching out to MathWorks support for further assistance. They may be able to provide specific troubleshooting steps or offer a solution based on their expertise with Simulink and VR technology.

In conclusion, while this may be a frustrating issue, it is important to remain patient and methodical in troubleshooting in order to find a solution. I hope these suggestions are helpful in resolving the disappearing objects issue in Simulink's VR Sink.
