FLAMES provides a proven solution for integrating live, virtual, and
constructive simulations. At I/ITSEC 2007,
Ternion's booth featured a simple virtual C4I system being driven by a
FLAMES-based simulation. This demonstration illustrated how a FLAMES-based
constructive simulation can be integrated with both live and virtual systems
to provide low-cost testing, training, and mission rehearsal systems.
How FLAMES Interfaces with
LVC Systems
FLAMES supports DIS and HLA interfaces to legacy systems. In addition,
FLAMES supports a unique, high-performance interface called the Interactive
Server (ISV) that was specially designed to address the demanding
requirements of integrating live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) systems.
The ISV supports many features not available in DIS and HLA, including
the ability to communicate directly with command, control, communications,
computer, and intelligence (C4I) systems using real-world tactical messages.
Custom external system interfaces can be and have been integrated into
FLAMES, as well.
Benefits of Using FLAMES for
LVC:
Proven capability in numerous, existing testing
and training systems DIS, HLA, and high-performance interfaces to live
and virtual systems Specialized support for interfaces to C4I systems Deployed with operational systems for “in-garrison”
training capability Fully customizable models and applications Used successfully by programs worldwide
