Thermite Rugged Embedded Computers – Quantum3D, Inc. has announced two new additions to its Thermite® family of embedded computers, the Thermite XVG 4000 and Thermite TL 2000. The Thermite XVG 4000 can be used for applications ranging from real-time sensor signal processing to situational awareness. It uses a modular design that allows the system to be optimized to meet specific project requirements, including tailoring of the CPU, GPU, video processing, networking, I/O, and storage features, using Commercial -Off-the-Shelf modules. Thermite TL 2000 rounds out Quantum3D's line of rugged Thermite family as the lightest and smallest embedded system. It offers lower power consumption for a range of markets, including man-wearable applications, robotics, real-time signal processing applications like GPS and radar, as well as embedded sensor signal processing applications such as LIDAR/LADAR. Triton Ocean SDK – Sundog Software has released its new Triton Ocean SDK for creating realistic oceans for simulation, training, and video game applications. Triton takes any given wind conditions or Beaufort scale conditions, and automatically creates 3D, animated ocean scenes with matching wave heights and motion. Triton may also be used with wholeEarth, "geocentric" simulation systems, and is compatible with C++ Windowsbased 3D engines built with OpenGL, DirectX9, or DirectX11. Sample code is provided for the popular OpenSceneGraph and Ogre 3D engines. Observation and Perceptual Skills Training – Design Interactive, Inc. has released ADAPT-AAR™, the latest
instalment in their ADAPT (Auto-Diagnostic Adaptive Precision Training) suite of products. ADAPT-AAR is an observation and perceptual skills training system that combines advanced eye-tracking technology with PC-based software to provide access to unobservable aspects of trainee performance such as search and detection. ADAPT-AAR provides each trainee with feedback on scan, search, detection and recognition performance and recommends techniques and training approaches for future remediation. The system also allows trainees to compare their search and detection processes side-by-side with experts so they can understand the differences between expert performance and their own. ms&t
