 All
simulators use one of two IVEX VDS-1000STS/500 Out-the-Window Display systems.
One single-channel scene generator provides a 45- by 36-degree field of
view while a two-channel generator provides a 90- by 36-degree field of
view. Using curved projection screens adds a greater sense of realism to
the simulations. We have a proven history and we
offer a wide variety of products and services.
At TEMS we help train America's pilot's and
prove the technologies of the future. We strive
continuously to improve the test process and have several planned
upgrades.
