Soldier Station: Integrating Constructive and Virtual Models
نویسندگان
چکیده
Soldier Station is a unique simulation system which bridges the gap between two distinct realms of modeling: constructive and virtual. The Soldier Station operator controls a simulated dismounted infantry soldier in a 3D virtual environment with rules of movement, engagement and tactics provided from a constructive model. This paper describes the Soldier Station system, its design, and the integration of two separate simulations with radically different modeling philosophies. The features of the resulting system, its limitations, and plans for future work are presented.

Applicability of Human Simulation for Enhancing Operations of Dismounted Soldiers
Current policies of the Alliance require the constant development and acquisition of new technologies and equipment to support the individual soldier. Applying different types of modeling and simulation (M&S) for the design of equipment has been advantageous in the past. This has gained importance ever since the dismounted soldier is considered as a system, rather than a set of single component...
متن کاملTheoretical Formulations for Finite Element Models of Functionally Graded Beams with Piezoelectric Layers
In this paper an overview of functionally graded materials and constitutive relations of electro elasticity for three-dimensional deformable solids is presented, and governing equations of the Bernoulli–Euler and Timoshenko beam theories which account for through-thickness power-law variation of a two-constituent material and piezoelectric layers are developed using the principle of virtua...
متن کاملEvaluation of Time Series Patterns for Wind Speed Volatilities in Anzali Meteorological Station
Abstract. One of the major problems in using wind energy is that wind-generated electricity is more unstable than electricity generated by other sources, and therefore integrating wind energy use with traditional power generation systems can be a challenge. This problem can be effectively reduced by having accurate information about the mean and wind speed volatilities. Therefore, in this paper...
متن کاملPlanning and Execution Control Architecture for Infantry Serious Gaming
Serious gaming is developing among all modern armies for teaching and training as well as for developing new concepts of engagement. To reach a realistic level of simulation, online planning techniques provide an expressive and constructive approach to define basic tactical activities. To achieve a mission goal, a virtual soldier must follow a short-term plan that can be quickly reprocessed in ...
متن کاملIntegration of the ARToolKitPlus optical tracker into the Personal Space Station
Interaction in Virtual Reality is accomplished through ”tracking devices”. These devices follow the position and orientation of real life objects, such as the user’s head and hands but also of other objects in order to provide a way to interact with virtual objects through objects in the real world. In this thesis we evaluate an optical tracking system for the Personal Space Station (PSS), a de...
