Quantum3D Sensor Solutions:
viXsen™ with nVSensor™
|
LONDON,
UK - April 29, 2003 - Quantum3D®, Inc., a leading provider
of open architecture, realtime visual computing solutions for
the Visual Simulation and Training (VST) and Embedded Visual Computing
(EVC) markets, today announced its exhibits lineup for ITEC 2003.
The featured theme of the Quantum3D booth is "scalability",
and the company will be demonstrating its wide-range of software
compatible, open architecture Image Generation (IG) solutions.
Quantum3D solutions on display at ITEC (booth
No. 418) include the following:
- Independence™--Quantum3D's 4th
generation IG solution for mission rehearsal and advanced flight
simulation and training applications
- Obsidian® FX--Quantum3D's new
entry level IG platform that features NVIDIA® Quadro®
FX graphics processing unit (GPU) technology
- Sentiris™-- Quantum3D's NVIDIA
Quadro-based PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) for embedded training
applications
- Software solutions--Integrated in
the Quantum3D demonstrations are the company's realtime application
development tools and digital content, including Mantis™,
IData™ and Facets™
Quantum3D also will demonstrate, by appointment,
its industry leading realtime sensor simulation solutions, including
Quantum3D viXsen™, a Mantis plug in that employs JRM Technologies'
SigSim™ to provide physics-based dynamic IR and NVG sensor
simulation, and Quantum3D nVSensor™ sensor post processor.
The demonstration combines a multi-channel Obsidian FX-based IG
to show high spatial resolution material-system encoded databases.
These databases are rendered in realtime with advanced spectral
signature synthesis and atmospheric propagation modeling to produce
radiometrically realistic sensor displays. To schedule a demonstration,
please stop by the Quantum3D booth (#418).
The highlight of the Quantum3D ITEC 2003 booth
is a four-channel Independence IG with a Glass Mountain Optics
Wide Area Single-eye Point (WASP) Display System. Crafted to demonstrate
geo-specific fixed wing/helicopter mission rehearsal and advanced
flight training applications, the Independence IG includes an
IV1-800 forward channel operating in QXGA (2048 x 1536) resolution
mode with Clarity™ 16 sub-pixel sample full scene anti-aliasing
(FSAA) to provide an industry leading level of image quality,
visual acuity and performance.
A key aspect of Independence's overall value
is its intrinsic technology insertion capability for low Total
Cost of Ownership (TCO). As a demonstration of this technology
insertion, Quantum3D will show an Independence sub-channel renderer
(SR) equipped with the latest NVIDIA Quadro FX GPU technology.
In addition, Quantum3D will showcase its new
Unified Channel Storage (UCS™) subsystem for operations in
multi-level secure environments, the Mantis Unit Test, and IGM.
The Mantis Unit Test is a unique Quantum3D capability designed
to facilitate IG integration and testing for demonstrating program
specific weather, environmental and special effects. IGM (IG Manager)
is Quantum3D's unique software utility that enables IG system
administrators to maintain and update Independence systems with
unparalleled simplicity.

Obsidian® FX
|
Quantum3D also launched its new Obsidian FX
entry-level, open architecture IG today (see separate release).
The Obsidian FX demonstration at ITEC features the NVIDIA Quadro
FX family of workstation GPU technologies combined with unique
Quantum3D value added software, synchronization and sensor simulation
technology. This combination provides IG features, performance,
enhanced full scene anti-aliased image quality and visual acuity
previously unavailable in entry level solutions that makes the
Obsidian FX an ideal platform for medium-resolution ground vehicle,
armor, tactics, marine and similar 30 Hz synthetic environment
training applications.

Sentiris™ PMC
|
Quantum3D will demonstrate Sentiris, the company's
PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) that brings the power of NVIDIA mobile
GPU technology to embedded visual computing applications. Sentiris,
coupled with Quantum3D IG software, will demonstrate 30 Hz embedded
training applications that provide levels of performance, image
quality and visual acuity previously limited to institutional
or appended systems.
Finally, Quantum3D will be showing its realtime
training application development and digital content products-including
IData, Quantum3D's industry leading human-machine interface development
tool, Facets, Quantum3D's award winning collection of realtime
models and cultural features for visual and sensor simulation
applications, and Mantis, the company's advanced realtime scene
manager and software IG.
