VESUB Technology Demonstration: Project Summary
Abstract
The objective of this report is to provide a chronology of project events and an assemblage of critical technical and process issues that played a significant role in the development of the Virtual Environment for Submarine Shiphandling and Piloting Training (VESUB) system, and which offer an insight into project development for this and other training systems that employ state-of-the-art technologies. This is the third in a series of reports to document the VESUB project. This report will be used in conjunction with the previous publications in the series, NAWCTSD TECHNICAL REPORT 97-013 and 98-003, which documented the usability analysis for the VESUB Instructor/Operator Station and the VESUB TEE, respectively. Finally, six conclusions and recommendations are provided to support future improvements in VE training system development: 1) VESUB provides effective shiphandling training; 2) Team communications is a must in the development of complex systems; 3) Legacy based system development must be closely evaluated; 4) Configuration Management is essential for success; 5) Complex scenes require sufficient fidelity to support training requirements; and 6) VE offers unique presentation capabilities that should be exploited.
