Overview
ART has created a innovative suite of Virtual Training Products for both fixed wing and rotary aircraft. Building upon ART’s extensive industry experience, the Virtual Training Suite (VTS) combines a powerful computer system architecture with high fidelity simulations to produce a low cost suite of training devices.
The VTS utilizes photorealistic models of a flight deck with free play simulation models to enable an aircraft to be fully represented on single or multiple screen computers. A training device created with the VTS is called a Virtual Training Device (VTD).
Desktop VTD
A student can use the Desktop VTD for self-paced training, aircraft familiarization and aircraft systems training. All aircraft systems are represented and can be procedurally operated the same as the actual aircraft.
The Desktop VTD can be deployed on an existing computer network, stand alone computer or laptop. The Desktop VTD can also be made accessible through the internet for Distance Learning or projected in a classroom by an Instructor.
Using the ART Lesson Plan Toolset, powerful interactive lessons can be created to guide a student with step by step instruction on how to operate the aircraft.
The Desktop VTD is highly configurable and new simulation screens can be quickly created by dragging and dropping from a pick list of available simulation objects.
Cockpit VTD
Using a multiple touch screen configuration, the Cockpit VTD can be configured to be spatially representative of an aircraft flightdeck. This version of the VTD can be used for flight, maintenance and crew training.
The Cockpit VTD will allow a crew to train on normal and abnormal operation of the aircraft. Using a separate Instructor Station, malfunctions can be activated allowing students to perform highly interactive procedures training.
The Cockpit VTD can be easily integrated into any pilot training program. The VTD will lower your training costs by reducing fixed base simulator (FBS) or full flight simulator (FFS) sessions.
Customization
ART has designed the VTS for quick and easy customization of a solution that is tailored to specific training requirements. Options include integration with tactile components such as Control Display Units (CDU) or a Mode Control Panel (MCP).
ART currently has an off the shelf model available for the Boeing 737 NG and can configure any fixed wing or rotary aircraft using an extensive library of in-house simulation models. The ART VTS can be certified to FAA FTD Level 4 or JAR STD 2A FTD Level 1.
