Model of firearms simulator based on a serious game and sensor technology

摘要

The purpose of this paper is to describe a new approach for building a firearms simulatorudthat is based on a Serious game – Virtual battle space 2 (VBS2) and motion sensor technology usedudin Army of Republic of Macedonia (ARM). Motion sensor technology is used to create representativeudweapon movement signals and transfer them to the VBS2 API in order to create realistic weaponudmovement.udThis paper major focus is to give a possible solutions for overcoming the problem with the transfer ofudthe signals from the sensors to the computer, so that everything is going to be rightly represented inudthe virtual 3D engine of VBS2. It also compares this model and the similar models that are in use inudNATO allies, and describe challenges and our plans for future work.
