Aerobel provides both PC-based & high end SGI-based realtime visual systems for Train Driver Simulators.
These visual systems provide:
These visual systems provide:
- out-the-window views having a field of view of 50-150 degrees at a 30/60Hz frame rate and resolutions up to 1600x1200 pixels
- a high resolution cab instrument panel
- a highly detailed geospecific railway database
- control of time of day, sun angle & met visibility
- stereo sound
- a proven interface to driving controls & electrical 3-/6-dof motion systems.
Aerobel’s visual systems are based on commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware & software tools together with customised software to provide Customers with the following benefits:
- reduced initial procurement cost & whole-life cost
- maximum flexibility
- protected software investment through the use of open format software
- significant growth potential (eg for increased database complexity and higher resolution displays).
Aerobel's Train Driver visual systems incorporate key features such as:
- anti-aliased, fully-phototextured out-the-window views at high frame rates
- high fidelity dynamic signals (controlled by an external signalling model)
- detailed rolling stock/key buildings with smooth level of detail switching
- dynamic loading of databases for reduced memory/lower IG cost
- use of optimised database features & line-of-sight culling for maximum realtime performance
- wind-induced effects (eg dust clouds & smoke plumes)
- dynamic components (eg level crossing barriers).
Aerobel also provides:
- correlated terrain databases for train running models
- data logging/replay systems
- database converters (eg to import proprietary data formats into the COTS 3D modelling tools) for the generation/modification of geospecific databases
- database optimisation & modelling services
- desktop stealth viewing/after-action review systems
- desktop Reconfigurable Crewstations.
