An Android Based Flight Simulator using VR Technology

Abstract

For training young pilots. Flight simulators enhance the safety measures, as the risk factor of severe injuries are eliminated since the training is now synthetic. However, flight simulators also require large space, large budget and does have many high end requirements, which are to be met in order to make the simulator respond and perform identical to that of a real aircraft. Flight simulators does have their hardware constraints and because of these limitations, the simulators are not of generic nature that supports different sort of aircrafts. In this paper, the simulator environment is deployed in virtual reality to simulate the similar controls on a stereoscopic environment. Deployment of the simulator is such, that experience of flying an aircraft from cockpit will give a sensational view to the user. Virtual reality is used in learning purpose, as normal person can experience what it will be like, to fly an aircraft

Implementation of Eye-Tracking Recording Tool into Narupa iMD VR Environment for Application in Chemistry Education

“…Variety and flexibility of virtual environments provide a wide range of possibilities for their application as an educational tool. As a result, VR has been used extensively in math, − language, and science education; − training of pilots and other areas.…”

Virtual 3D Tour: A User Experience for On-Campus Orientation

“…Virtual Reality is a technology which has the potential to create a computer-generated environment and allows the user to participate in it [4]. You can hike the sky-touching mountains or explore the Pacific Ocean, even play with the dolphins, you can immerse yourself in a video game without leaving your couch [5]. Offering a sense of immersive ness from the equipment, the user senses a feeling that it is a part of the environment and the components of Virtual Reality are parts of the user's body [6].…”
