BRITE II Characterization and Application to a New Advanced Flight Motion Simulator

Abstract

Hardware-in-the-loop testing has, for many years, been an integral part of the modeling and simulation efforts at the U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command's (AMCOM) Aviation and Missile Research, Engineering, and Development Center (AMRDEC). AMCOM's history includes the development, characterization, and implementation of several unique technologies for the creation of synthetic environments in the visible and infrared regions and AMCOM has continued significant efforts in these areas. Recently, AMCOM has been testing and characterizing a new state-of-the-art resistor array projector and advanced flight motion simulator (FMS). This paper describes recent test and integration activities of the Honeywell BRITE II emitter array and its integration into an infrared scene projector (IRSP) compatible with a new Carco Flight Motion Simulator (FMS).
