Presagis and Barco Showcase Premium Visualization Technology
26 November 2007 10:56
Presagis, a leading provider of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) modeling, simulation and embedded display graphics software for the aerospace and defense industry, today announced it is teaming up with Barco, a leading global provider of display solutions, at the interservice/industry training, simulation and Education Conference (I/ITSEC) to show the superior advantages of high-fidelity visualization for the modeling and simulation community. The union demonstrates how customers can achieve the highest fidelity possible for simulation applications by bringing together the industry's leading visualization software from Presagis and premium display hardware from Barco.
"To create a truly immersive training experience, simulation developers need to create scenarios with a high degree of realism. They demand tools that enable the generation of intricate detail, including everything from the effect of light on rolling waves to the surface of the earth on a moonlit night," said Dr Al Herman, vice president and general manager of Barco's simulation division. "With visualization software from Presagis, users can achieve this level of sophistication in their simulations. We are proud that our ultra high-resolution displays were selected to display these high-quality images."
In I/ITSEC booth 2501, Barco will showcase the full image generation capabilities of Vega Prime and Lyra, two visualization COTS tools from Presagis used to create training scenarios for the defense and commercial aviation sectors. To demonstrate the software's powerful image generation, Barco will run stimulated night vision scenarios on its new SIM 7 series LCoS projector and display a maritime scene on the new Galaxy NH-12 1080p HD projector.
Presagis will give visitors a taste of how military personnel experience simulations by demonstrating its software on Barco's LC-47 flat panel display system at booth I/ITSEC 2301. Scenarios developed using tools from Presagis will also be running on Barco's LC-42 LCD flat panel displays, as well as on Barco's iCon H500 projection system.
"The final fidelity of a simulation is only as good as each component. That is why it's important to offer the modeling and simulation community best-of-breed hardware and software technology," said Patrice Commune, President, Presagis. "We always strive to be ahead of the curve when it comes to standards in visualization quality, and with this collaboration, Presagis offers a high fidelity image generation system to complement the most advanced hardware."
