Click on to the following site : Helicopter drive through Mountains: simulator
Now, as the music comes on, move the cursor left and right. What you see is the core of the Computer Generated images, which are used for making Simulators. Twenty years ago, when we were working on developing these training methods, this kind programmes were like dreams for us. And today, this is available free, at the click of a button!
I am reminded of the enormous work which my friend Maj (now Maj Gen) AV Subramanian had to do to produce a rudimentary scene for a vehicle simulator. It took him three years to write the program which ran into millions of instructions and the end result looked like the Rajasthan desert. And yet,we were all thrilled and excited. Perhaps in no other field has the development been as breath taking as in computer graphics. Let us wait and see what is next in store for us!
Maj Gen Surjit Singh (Retd)
We thank Maj Gen Surjit Singh for the free Chopper ride in the snow clad mountains. Exhilarating Indeed! Good scope for ESM software geeks. Military Training is an area yet untapped by Veterans where immense scope exists. Think of it, warfare schools like Jungle, Mountain, Desert and High Altitude can be established and run partly by Veterans.
