AIMSsim Version 2.2.1, User Manual

Abstract

This user manual provides an overview of how to use the software developed to support the empirical investigation of a simulated user interface for an Advanced Integrated Multi sensor Surveillance (AIMS) system (formerly known as the Enhanced Low Light Level Visible and Infrared Surveillance System ELVISS). The AIMS system is an electro-optical imaging system being developed by the Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC)-Valcartier to enhance the capability of search and rescue (SAR) crews to operate effectively at night and in degraded weather conditions. In order to ensure that a SAR operator would be able to use the system effectively and with a minimal amount of training, a prototype human machine interface (HMI) was developed to evaluate design concepts. The latest development phase added important tracking and motion related functionality (amongst other things) to the system and gave it a new name AIMSsim.
