I.Summarize of Virtual Reality Technology

Virtual Reality technology,abbreviated as VR,also is known as cyberspace technology.Since the development of human civilization entered the 20th century,human beings have increased the research and development of various fields of technology.As far as virtual reality technology is concerned,its essence is a new practical technology generated in the new era.Virtual reality technology in the new era has a strong integration,mainly involving computer,electronic information,simulation technology and other fields.Its main function is that the experiencer can simulate the virtual environment in real life and immerse himself in it.With the continuous development of science and technology and the rapid growth of the national economy,the new society's actual demand for virtual reality technology is also getting higher and higher.Modern society's high demand for virtual reality technology has attracted the attention of the country,with the support of national policies and social economy,virtual reality technology has made good achievements in performance improvement and innovation.Many scientists are speculating that with the passage of time,virtual reality technology will become one of the important development trends of China in the future[1].

Virtual reality technology,as its name implies,combines virtual technology with real environment.Theoretically speaking,virtual reality technology is a computer simulation system that can link the real environment with the virtual environment through virtual technology.The principle is to create a virtual simulation environment based on the computer network,which allows the experiencers to immerse themselves in a specific environment.The data collected in real life are used to generate a special electronic signal by the computer network,and finally uses a special output device to turn the electronic signal generated in the computer network into a phenomenon that can be perceived visually and auditory.With the development of the times and the progress of science and technology,the current virtual reality technology not only gives people visual impact and auditory impact,but also allows people to have some experience in touch[2].

II.Significance of the Application of Virtual Reality Technology to the 3D Animation Design Major in Application-oriented Colleges

With the deepening implementation of reform and opening up,the country has higher and higher standards in the field of education.In order to meet the development needs of the new era,the education department has formulated and implemented the new curriculum reform at the present stage,and is committed to innovating the current nationwide teaching system and education model.As mentioned above,the application effect of virtual reality technology in the field of education in China is the most significant.The reason is that virtual reality technology is more suitable for the 3D animation design major in Chinese application-oriented universities.In recent years,the teaching purpose in China has changed from learning-oriented to learning-applied.At present,the professional teaching in application-oriented universities in China focuses on the simultaneous teaching and practice,so as to ensure that students can acquire good practical ability and thinking ability while learning professional knowledge[3].

Application-oriented universities account for a large proportion in the innovative development of Chinese educational enterprise,therefore,the development status of application-oriented universities has been valued by the national government.As an educational place for cultivating compound applied talents,application-oriented universities must ensure the continuous supply of professional talents for Chinese innovative development and sustainable development,providing solid support for the motherland.In conclusion,because of their special nature,application-oriented universities tend to practice teaching in the teaching process,focusing on how to cultivate students' practical operation ability and improve their flexible application ability of required knowledge and skills.Taking the 3D animation design major in application-oriented universities as an example,the talent cultivation in this major is often unable to proceed according to the original plan due to the related facilities,equipment,investment and other reasons,which seriously hinder the smooth training of 3D animation design professionals.However,the emergence of virtual reality technology has effectively solved the dilemma in the implementation of the training plan for 3D animation design major,especially in the construction of 3D animation digital resource database.Virtual reality technology can help application-oriented universities to establish a good relationship of cooperation and development with enterprises and institutions,and also comply with the call of the state on school-enterprise cooperation policy.During this period,cooperative enterprises can provide resources sharing for application-oriented universities,and help application-oriented universitie to realize the renewal of practical teaching resources and the expansion of teaching resources.Application-oriented universities in China can also take the resources provided by cooperative enterprises as the basis for developing their own 3D animation design majors,and establish a professional curriculum system that includes core courses,professional title courses,extended courses and characteristic courses,promote work in all areas by drawing upon the experience gained on key points,taking 3D animation design as the premise and basis for the overall development,enlarge local advantages and promote the overall stable and rapid development of application-oriented universities in China[4].

III.Application of Virtual Reality Technology in the Construction of 3D Animation Major Digital Resource Database

In recent years,Chinese education system has implemented reform policies,and the construction of 3D animation major digital teaching resource database in application-oriented universities has also occurred.According to its specific construction content,the construction of 3D animation major digital teaching resource database can be divided into two parts,management platform construction and resource database construction,the main purpose of building a new management platform is to provide a better audit system for teachers of this major,while the construction of resource database is to ensure the sufficient teaching resources of this major[5].

Management platform and teaching resources are the construction concepts of application-oriented colleges based on the new era,when carrying out concrete implementation,leaders of application-oriented colleges and universities must clearly recognize the differences between management platform and teaching resources in various aspects.To be specific,the construction of the management platform is to promote the reform and innovation of the current classroom teaching mode in application-oriented universities,realize the information-based teaching of teachers of 3D animation design as soon as possible,and improve the teaching efficiency of 3D animation design major as well as the overall teaching quality.On the other hand,the leaders of application-oriented colleges can regard the teaching resources here as the core of the construction of the professional resource base,the specific technical links involved mainly include panorama shooting,post-production,model animation,special effects production and interaction design.Virtual reality technology is exactly in line with the teaching characteristics and development characteristics of 3D animation design major.Virtual reality technology can be regarded as real objects in real life,and can also be regarded as substances that cannot be observed by human eyes,and then it can be expressed by special means such as 3D modeling.However,the scenes in virtual reality are not directly observable by human eyes,but can be changed into the real environment through high-tech means such as computer network.Therefore,these scenes are named virtual reality by people.Through the above description,I believe that people can see the integration of virtual reality technology and 3D animation design,the effective application of virtual reality technology to 3D animation design in applicationoriented universities can help them complete the transformation and development from traditional teaching mode to modern teaching mode,so that application-oriented universities can make great progress on the road of innovation and development.

IV.Conclusion

To sum up,with the in-depth implementation of the new curriculum reform policy in the field of education in China,the construction of 3D animation major digital resource database in applicationoriented universities is particularly important,the emergence of virtual reality technology exactly effectively helps the construction of digital resource database of this major.The development of science and technology has further improved the performance and quality of virtual reality technology.At the same time,the application of virtual reality technology in the field of education helps it to complete its own school-enterprise cooperation projects and establish a new curriculum setting system with unique educational characteristics.At present,the innovation and reform of 3D animation design specialty in domestic application-oriented universities must meet the development requirements of modern society.In order to meet the requirements of the advanced development of application-oriented universities in the new era,the construction of digital resource database in the 3D animation design major should always pay attention to such important factors as its reproducibility,ease of operation,low cost and high participation.
