Paper interface for simulation environments

摘要

Techniques for using a paper interface to replay time-based media information captured for a simulation and/or restart execution of a simulation program from a user-selectable time point. A static representation is generated for time-based media information captured during a simulation. The static representation may be printed on a paper medium. The paper medium on which the static representation is printed may be used to perform various operations such as replaying previously recorded time-based media information for a simulation from a user-selectable time point. The paper medium on which the static representation is printed may also be used to restart execution of a simulation program from a user-selectable time point from a previous run of the simulation program.
