چکیده

Recent technological advances in the area of personal desktop computer Flight Simulation Software to represent real-world geographical and Topographical terrain, textures and land-objects have led to interesting developments in the field of Aviation and Flight Training. This has resulted in the Aviation Sector overseas looking at this technology as an effective training tool, and perhaps as a new method to log instrument flying hours for student pilots. I will be looking specifically at some emerging geographical terrain and land-object personal Flight Simulation Software currently being developed by software developers. This will consider the terrain, textures and other land-objects to determine how accurate and useful the sceneries are for real VFR flying. I will focus on the 3D-Graphical rendering processes and the quality and accuracy of the Simulated Terrain and Geographical Landmarks in the United States, England and New Zealand. My methodology will attempt to highlight the technologies as mentioned in the reference material, making a comparison to actual terrain; and in the conclusion to offer some thoughts in summary.

Real-Time Cloud Rendering

This paper presents a method for realistic real-time rendering of clouds suitable for flight simulation and games. It provides a cloud shading algorithm that approximates multiple forward scattering in a preprocess, and first order anisotropic scattering at runtime. Impostors are used to accelerate cloud rendering by exploiting frame-to-frame coherence in an interactive flight simulation. Impos...

CADRL: Real Single-Image Flight Without a Single Real Image

Deep reinforcement learning has emerged as a promising and powerful technique for automatically acquiring control policies that can process raw sensory inputs, such as images, and perform complex behaviors. However, extending deep RL to real-world robotic tasks has proven challenging, particularly in safety-critical domains such as autonomous flight, where a trial-and-error learning process is ...

Dynamic Culling Scheme for Graphic Rendering System of Flight Simulator

Recently real-time overhead processing technology has received great attention from many researchers since it is expected to play a great role in improving frame per second. Also, this technology is suitable for flight simulator where large number of vertices as well as high resolution image is demanded. Even though typical culling or level of detail can be applied to flight simulator, more dee...

Interactive viewing of 3D terrain models using VRML

Many applications, including 3D Geographic Information Systems and flight simulation, rely on 3D terrain models. A system that supports these applications should ideally provide real-time interactive rendering of section of a large set of terrain data that may be accessed remotely using a client/server system. We present a Web-based system for interactive 3D terrain rendering using Virtual Real...
