PRAGUE, Nov. 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The US-Czech startup, Vrgineers, specializing in Digital and Combined Actuality applied sciences for pilot coaching, has teamed up with AMD and NVIDIA, graphical chip rivals, to pioneer an revolutionary structure for combined actuality simulators. Vrgineers will unveil the brand new MR headset XTAL 3 CAVU at I/ITSEC 2023.
Combined actuality expertise is gaining momentum within the simulation business, particularly in pilot coaching setting and is predicted to surpass the utilization of normal projection-based simulators. Right this moment’s combined actuality expertise has been restricted by the standard of picture sensors and high-performance necessities.
To handle this problem Vrgineers designed an revolutionary system that eliminates calculation bottlenecks and brings combined actuality expertise to the forefront of the business with its new XTAL 3 CAVU (Ceiling and Visibility Limitless) Combined Actuality Headset. This distinctive combined actuality system makes use of 24Mpix picture sensors which might be linked to Xilinx FPGA PCIe16x card (chip producer acquired by AMD) by way of optical cables. This “hardcoded” processor is devoted to calculating excessive decision combined actuality photographs in simply 1 millisecond, whereas the direct reference to the newest NVIDIA Quadro RTX A6000 GPU bypasses the CPU, lowering total latency to a minimal. Because of this, the Quadro RTXA600 is solely devoted to digital actuality calculations, conserving sources and enhancing efficiency.
“By using AMD XILINX FPGA in a mix with NVIDIA Quadro card, we discovered a method to offer a lot wanted efficiency increase for combined actuality, which is much above of two quickest graphical playing cards, with a lot decrease latency in addition to energy consumption,” explains Marek Polcak, Vrgineers CEO & co-founder.
The XTAL 3 CAVU design is crafted from precision-engineered carbon, showcasing an beautiful stability of energy, outstanding light-weight traits, and distinctive sturdiness. It is a perfect selection for functions in high-performance industries corresponding to pilot coaching. This design ensures the headset is lighter than ever earlier than, setting new requirements for each consolation and efficiency.
This distinctive system will probably be embedded in Vrgineers Combined Actuality Classroom Simulators and obtainable for buy in 2024 for chosen companions, corresponding to U.S. NAVY below the SBIR Part II. For much less demanding situations, Vrgineers are additionally providing an improved model of XTAL 3 NEO Combined Actuality Headset, which is presently probably the most reasonably priced resolution for pilot coaching available on the market.
All Vrgineers merchandise, together with our cutting-edge digital and combined actuality headsets are TAA licensed and adjust to the strictest safety laws for deployment in restricted areas.
