Teleknosys~TM Interactive Tool For A God's Eye View of Flight Test Experiments

摘要

Engineers at Sandia National Laboratories are combining entertainment industry software with traditional data collection techniques to create an interactive visualization tool called TeleKnoSys~TM. By replacing the usual flight simulator joystick with a telemetry data stream, experimental data is combined with existing three-dimensional (3D) engineerign models. Users are immersed in their experiment, allowing interaction with and comprehension of complex data sets. Leveraging commercial software with existing model sets enables quick, cost effective development. Resutls from real-time flight tests will be presented.
