Hardware Setup for 5DT Air Defense Training Simulator
The system utilizes a tripod-mounted framework that emulates the framework of the real missile launcher. This setup is only a technology demonstrator. When a simulator is required for a specific surface to air missile (SAM) system, the simulator will be integrated with the real launcher of that SAM system. The system consists of a projector and projection screen that is mounted on the tripod-mounted framework. There is also a virtual 10x scope mounted to the system. The white tube on the side emulates a launching tube. The orientation of the virtual launcher is tracked with an orientation-tracking device. The orientation angle is fed into the simulation computer and the relevant images are projected on the projection screen and into the viewing scope. The wide field of view (WFOV) is displayed on the projection screen. The operator would typically acquire a target on the WFOV screen and then resort to the 10x magnification viewing scope for a narrow field of view (NFOV). Identification and missile control is performed with the NFOV viewing scope.

5DT may also offer a full 360 degree wrap-around video wall for the wide field of view (WFOV) display.
