Design and Application of 3D Simulation Development Environment Based on OpenGL by Using Delphi

This paper focuses on the research of how to create a 3D simulation development environment, using Delphi and OpenGL to Windows System. The function and characteristic of OpenGL graphics class and the run mechanism of OpenGL in Win32 environment are introduced at first. The approaches of how to create a 3D simulation development environment using OpenGL and Delphi to program are discussed in detail. And this 3D simulation development environment is applied to designing some visualization simulation software of Warhead virtual test system. It has a strong 3D simulation with OpenGL graphics class, therefore has preferable value to use and good foreground for application.
