Aerobel produces customised
turnkey Visual Systems
at an affordable price. These are based on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware & open format commercial software tools in order 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
- ruggedisation to meet transportability requirements
- significant growth potential (eg to cater for increased database complexity over the next few years and higher resolution displays).
The company has developed application-specific software and a such that systems are:
- interoperable
- modular & reconfigurable and hence multi-role.
The benefits of Aerobel's Visual Systems are:
- systems accepted into-service in a timely manner based on proven, innovative & cost-effective technology
- reconfigurable systems using COTS hardware & open format software
- technology transfer (eg tools, technical support & training).

Aerobel has produced specialised software that provides additional functionality to the COTS software tools. This software includes:
- Stiletto a Stealth Viewing tool with a graceful degradation capability such that the frame rate is maintained in the stealth viewer when there are DIS overloads and/or the number of entities is increased beyond (say) 50
- DISArm generates a DIS log file to emulate a CGF model
- AeroLos to cull those parts of a terrain database that cannot be seen using pre-computed lines of sight.
The benefits include:
- productivity-enhancement
- better handling of overloads
- higher realtime performance.

Aerobel has produced several realtime visuals tools that provide additional functionality to the COTS software tools. These realtime visuals tools include:
- AeroCAD to generate 3D models automatically from CAD data in DXF format
- WayMaker to build semi-automatically line features such as roads/railways/rivers onto an existing database
- GroundHog to provide optimised compiled code for intelligent terrain-following
- Dynamo to provide platform dynamics for ground-based, helicopters & fixed wing aircraft
- FireFight to provide battle-induced effects
- ADAMANT to evaluate non-intrusively the performance of a terrain database at runtime and confirm the performance of completed terrain databases via the acquisition of data for a large number of viewpoints
- FRAMETOOL to maintain the frame rate of realtime visuals applications under time-varying load conditions.
The benefits include:
- productivity-enhancement
- reliable performance measurement.
