Virtual Marine FRC Simulators
Virtual Marine’s Fast Rescue Craft (FRC) Simulator is designed for high fidelity FRC navigation training through validated real-mission scenario simulation. This simulator is custom designed to match boat helm and navigation controls, and incorporates real vessel hardware.
Training Benefits
Fast Rescue Boat simulation increases confidence in seafarers, in order to respond to any emergency, and offers these key advantages over conventional training:
- Reduces the cost of boat operations for training coordination
- Realistic and verifiable medium to execute safe and repeatable training of a fast and potentially dangerous craft
- Operators develop positive boat handling and navigation skills before on the water operations Quickens competency development, and offers continuous learning
- Performance evaluation related to communication protocol, emergency procedures and incident scene assessment
Training Objectives
Virtual Marine’s Fast Rescue Craft Simulator meets the training needs associated with fast rescue craft operation. This simulator solution allows for effective training in high-risk operations, in a controlled and safe environment. The solution is adaptable to a wide range of user groups that operate high-speed boats:
- Special Operations Forces
- Coast Guards
- Navies
- Search and Rescue Organisations
- Marine Police Forces
- Pilots
- Customs and Border Patrols
- Fire Departments
- Maritime- and Fast Rescue Craft training providers
- Ship builders and manufacturers
Embedded Navigation Simulators
Virtual Marine’s Embedded Bridge Simulator is a ship and navigation equipment simulator used for simulation and stimulation. The unique scenario builder software uses Virtual Marine Quest Architecture to construct and run simulation scenarios. The Embedded Bridge Simulator can be embedded in OEM consoles, as it stimulates OEM software with navigation data and RADAR software with RADAR signals from simulated scenarios. Varied sensor simulation includes: GPS, AIS, MINS, Gyro, Echo Sounder, Speed Log, and Metoc System.
Ice Management Simulation
Virtual Marine’s Ice Management Simulator uses embedded software to construct and run simulation scenarios, on OEM marine bridge equipment. As a ship and navigation equipment simulator, it is used for the tactical simulation of ice procedures in multi-year ice, and for calculating ice interactions against a ship’s hull and other ice floes that results from prop and bow thruster wash and vessel ice movements.
Helicopter Ditching
Virtual Marine’s state-of-the-art Helicopter Ditching Simulator on motion bed generates the experience of a helicopter takeoff, the in flight briefs, and the on-the-water steps to follow a controlled ditch. This safety simulator offers an innovative medium to practice both ditching procedures and the proper sequence for safely evacuating in a fully immersive environment
