METHOD OF EXCLUDING THE EFFECT OF SEPARATING AN IMAGE BY FRAMES OF MONITORS FOR VISUALIZING THE EXTRA-COCKPIT ENVIRONMENT OF FLIGHT SIMULATORS

摘要

FIELD: link trainers; aviation.;SUBSTANCE: invention relates to military aircraft simulators, particularly to complexes of semi-actual simulation. In the method of excluding the effect of separating an image by frames of monitors for visualizing an extra-cockpit environment in aircraft simulators, a terrain image and an image of objects essential for the simulator are pre-formed, taking into account the exclusion from the image of the section of the extra-cubic space closed by the frame of each monitor. Position of the head of the trained pilot is tracked in real time by a sensor of head position of the trainee. Information received in the sensors is transmitted to the differential signal generating unit, where a difference signal is generated, which is proportional to the value and direction of displacement of the head of the trained pilot. Then the spatial position of the rendered image of the extra-cockpit environment is corrected relative to the new position of the head of the trained pilot so that part of the image of the extra-cubic space previously closed by the monitors frames, appeared on monitors screens, and the image of each airspace object is moved by a value calculated taking into account the distance from the trained pilot to this object of extra-cubic space.;EFFECT: higher realism of training.;1 cl
