At ITEC 2018, BISim and partners will showcase a range of new products, capabilities and training applications at stand D40. These include the following demonstrations:
State-of-the-Art Image Generation - VBS Blue IG, BISim’s powerful 3D whole earth image generation, has just been released! We’ll present the latest advances in our high-performance, whole-earth 3D image generation solution. Take to the skies on Brunner’s VR-Motion 200 motion platform using VBS Blue IG. Brunner’s VR-Motion 200 provides combines State-of-the-Art Virtual Reality technology with powerful dynamic motion enriched Virtual Training environments.
New Tools to Customize VBS3 and VBS Blue IG - BISim has just released VBS Simulation SDK to create custom applications for VBS3 and VBS IG SDK to customize and integration VBS Blue IG with third-party applications. See demos and attend one of two free tutorials being offered on May 16 by BISim and led by our Senior Director of Development on how to create plugins using VBS Simulation SDK. Register here to attend.
High-fidelity Gunnery and Crew Training - Check out a high-fidelity CV 9040 part task trainer using VBS3 that BISim delivered to the Swedish Armed Forces, providing virtual panels that can be manipulated through touchscreen devices. BISim painstakingly recreated the CV 9040 down to the last detail, giving gunners and commanders the capability to turn knobs, toggle dials and flip switches as they behave in the actual vehicle. The trainer is equipped with AFV Sim’s CV9040 gunner control handles.
Bleeding Edge VR/MR Tech - Come experience bleeding edge VR/MR technologies that BISim is adapting for military simulation and virtual training uses! VBS3 supports commercial -off-the-shelf VR devices including the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and Open Source Virtual Reality-based devices. VBS Blue IG has been demonstrated for use with the Oculus Rift as well as augmented reality headsets for cockpit and crew simulation training.
