This paper describes a building block visual simulation facility utilizing new generation and display techniques combined with utilizing television-model image generation methods to provide a flexible facility for a variety of vehicle study applications. The facility includes independent computer controlled scene elements which are combined on television monitors and on a 10 ft x 14 ft back projection screen through the use of up to five simultaneous projection devices. Two independent scenes can be constructed simultaneously enabling simulated vehicles to ¿look at¿ and fly around each other. The facility features unique image generation, flexibility, and quick change-over from one type of vehicle to another. Complete change-over is often done dailyduring the course of simulation study programs.
