VR, AR AND MR LEAD THE WAY IN ROTORCRAFT SIMULATION TRAINING
BY JAMES CARELESS V
R, AR, and MR: these are the trends dominating and driving simulation- based rotorcraft training today.
Definition time: VR stands for virtual reality, which fully immerses the user inside a digital environment. AR is short for augmented reality, where the user’s real-world field of
view is overlaid with digital imagery. MR stands for mixed reality, where users can physically interact with actual items in either a VR or AR environment.
Here’s how the rotorcraft industry is using VR, AR and MR for simulation-based training at six cutting-edge companies.
