Advanced Simulation in Undergraduate Pilot Training: Computer Image Generation.

Abstract

The Advanced Simulation for Undergraduate Pilot Training (ASUPT) system is an advanced simulation system that will be used in a research program by this laboratory (AFHRL) to investigate the simulator role in future Undergraduate Pilot Training programs. The ASUPT simulates the Air Force's primary jet trainer, the Cessna T-37B aircraft. A Computer Image Generator (CIG) system has been developed to provide for a visual simulation of the terrain and other aircraft for research operations in the T-37B aircraft simulator. This CIG development represents an advancement in image generation technology for visual simulation. This report documents the technical development and capabilities of this ASUPT visual simulation system (and thereby, its related technology area) for dissemination to interested and concerned Air Force and DEpartment of Defense personnel and the scientific community.
