Frasca To Display TruVision Global At I/ITSEC

Latest Sim Technology Offers Realistic Worldwide Coverage

Frasca's newest version of its visual system, TruVision Global, will be on display in the Frasca booth (#3940) at I/ITSEC, which will be held November 26-29 in Orlando, FL.

Frasca tells ANN its TruVision visual system is now even more impressive with the introduction of TruVision Global. Long recognized for its realistic imagery in the airport area, Frasca's latest version includes worldwide coverage at a base map level. This base map includes over 10,000 runways, coastlines, representative terrain, rivers, roads, and more.

The base map feature will allow the pilot to fly anywhere in the world and view representative terrain and runways in each area. Other new features of TruVision Global are variable time of day, sun/moon/star models, wave or sea state simulation, improved urban lighting, moving automobile lights at night, improved entity support, and automatic building generation.

TruVision Global allows for high detail areas to be added as needed. Satellite or aerial imagery can be added and will automatically integrate with the base map features. High detail airports also are available. Compatibility with digital vector data allows entire cities of roads and buildings to be represented. Adding data is a drag an drop process that does not require a lengthy database rebuild.

"We are excited about the new capabilities that Frasca's customers will be getting," said Frasca VP John Frasca.

The first delivery of TruVision Global will be on an EC135 FTD delivered to the Finnish Aviation Academy in Pori Finland. This system includes the world wide base map with a high detail inset of southern Finland. The high detail area includes an area of 350 by 250 miles. This area includes over 275,000 buildings and 27,000 miles of roads.

Thirteen mission specific areas include hospitals, accident scenes and airports. These specific areas are modeled so as to be highly recognizable in comparison to the real world -- and it all runs at 60 Hz, according to Frasca.

A key enabling technology of TruVision Global is software from Diamond Visionics of Vestal, NY. Integrating Diamond’s GenesisRTTM Technology into Frasca’s TruVision Image Generator product line makes a truly dramatic visual system.

"We view this partnership as a significant validation by Frasca of our technology, our product, our support, and our people and we look forward to a long term relationship," said Diamond Visionics President David Gdovin.
