Aerobel provides both PC- & SGI-based systems for urban simulation applications such as planning, impact on environment, design, safety assessments & training (eg public order & major incidents).

These systems provide:

• interactive control of eyepoint within high fidelity geospecific databases
  
• 1- to 3-channel display giving a field of view of 50-150 degrees with own heading as an overlay
  
• 20/30Hz visual update rate at resolutions up to 1280x1024 pixels per channel
  
• on-screen controls with own heading & GPS position displayed
  
• correlated map display
  
• interactive movement of key objects
  
• vehicles on routes
  
• replay of actual & simulation log files (eg crowd movement)
  
• control of time of day, sun angle & met visibility
  
• MMI controls (eg trackball/mouse or external joystick).
  
  

Aerobel’s products are based on commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware & software tools together with customised software to provide Customers with the following benefits:

• large area, geospecific databases
  
• use of optimised database features & line-of-sight culling for maximum realtime performance
  
• special effects (eg fires & smoke affected by wind)
  
• laser ranging & line-of-sight overlays
  
• rapid drive-through & teleporting facility
  
• God’e eye/helicopter views
  
• terrain-following, tether & stealth modes
• DIS-compliance.
  
  

Aerobel also provides:

• ruggedised systems
  
• analysis facilities
  
• stereo audio
