There is a need for a cost effective approach to training ground forces in combat vehicle identification (CVI), especially under thermal sighting conditions. Computer image generation (CIG) provides many advantages for the development of cost effective CVI training: 3-D and thermal modelling of vehicles, thermal rendering of landscape scenes, and a wide assortment of training scenarios. But the extent of computation required for CIG makes it possible to combine real-time presentation and interactive control, except on very expensive, high end graphics systems. The authors describe a solution in which they have separated CIG and presentation, allowing the computation-intensive processes to run 'off-line' on virtually any computer. The presentation is provided by Digital Video Interactive (DVI) technology, a flexible, low cost, PC-based system for delivering high quality graphics, photo quality imagery, motion video and audio. The authors have demonstrated a specialized animation algorithm which combines landscape scenes and vehicle imagery to produce animated scenarios in which trainees face varying degrees of difficulty in vehicle identification. The simulation is intended to replicate the appearance and controls of common thermal sights in tanks.
