Overview
What you will learn
On completion of the Synthetic Environments and Virtual Simulation course offered by Cranfield University you will be able to:
- Appreciate the architectures and main components typically required when constructing complete visual solutions in Defence, with particular reference to virtual simulator systems.
- Appreciate the tools, techniques and processes for utilising relevant geospatial source datasets to provide the range of different terrain and environmental representations typically needed in Defence simulation applications, with particular reference to how these are evolving to meet emerging enterprise and systems architecture requirements.
- Appreciate the range of display options (including emerging technologies such as VR/AR/MR/XR) for delivering visual and associated information to simulation users, in order to evaluate their suitability for particular requirements.
- Appreciate the need for active adoption and development of relevant standards that enable Defence to coherently re-use and manage its resources in order to improve interoperability and value-for-money at the enterprise level.
