San Jose, CA, February 8, 2000 - Quantum3D® Inc., the leader in PC-based visual computing systems, announced today that Doron Precision Systems, Inc., Binghamton, NY, selected the company's Quicksilver™ II visual computing systems for their newest line of police officer driver training simulators. Doron's AMOS™ (Advanced Mobile Operations Simulator) is the first such system approved by California Peace Officers Standards and Training (POST) for use by police departments in the State of California.

Local, county, and state police agencies use the AMOS systems for police tactical training exercises. Each AMOS is a single operator unit that allows drivers to interact with other vehicles in a synthetic environment, with 65 driving scenarios approved by California POST. With built-in networking support, multiple AMOS units can be linked to create realtime driving scenarios where cooperation, teamwork and tactical procedures for preventing a pursuit or, if necessary, initiating a safe pursuit, are practiced in the safety of the simulators. These cost-effective simulators enable police officers to train more efficiently and be better prepared for real-life emergency situations, improving driver reaction and reducing the risk of injuries or deaths. The AMOS provides a dynamic training environment for a wide variety of agencies and organizations, and the simulator is easily adapted to any ground vehicle application, whether military or civilian.

The AMOS is Doron's newest and most advanced mobile operation simulator. Employing the Quicksilver II, the new system has a significantly enhanced visual system that provides clear, sharp, enriched graphics. Five channels or monitors per seat provide a full, undistorted 225o field of view, including mirrors, that allows drivers to have a panoramic view of an enlarged environment. The environment includes realistic building detail, divided highways, and interstate highways with elevated interchanges plus textured and realistic vehicles.

"We chose Quantum3D because of the quality of their graphics subsystems and the ruggedness of their computers," said Kenneth Kittinger, Doron Senior Vice President.

"Doron is the recognized world leader in the development and manufacture of driving simulation systems," said Rick Bess, Vice President of Business Development and Marketing at Quantum3D. "Their adoption of Quicksilver II as the best platform for AMOS is further confirmation of Quantum3D's abilities to deliver systems that meet the needs of the widest range of visual simulation and training applications. Quicksilver II is a ruggedized, open architecture, scalable system, designed to deliver the best possible performance in simulators for either visual simulation and training or for advanced entertainment applications."

Doron also employs critical components of the Quicksilver II, including Quantum3D's Obsidian® 200SBi-8440 graphics subsystem, and OpenGVS™ scene management software, as well as their own scene manager. Other software includes MultiGen Creator™ as the modeler, with Microsoft® Windows NT® as the operating system.
